Freeze will apply to an entire track. I like to be able to just apply an effect to individual regions on a track - it might be an effect that I don't want to use anywhere else on the track. If I do this ten times on the same track with different effects it would mean using ten plugs and a whole bunch of automation. I just want to have "process" button on all plug-ins, like Audiosuite/Premiere, or "bounce VST effects" as in Peak. StudiVision made this so easy -- process the region: a new file was created and popped into place: the old region could always be put back in its' place. Example (single track): Drastic EQ phrase 1. Distort phrase 5. Mangle Phrase 7. Reverse and EQ Phrase 11 with a weird filter envelope. etc. etc. Jonathan Perl Sonic Arts Center @ The City College Of New York (212) 650-6837 http://sonic.arts.ccny.cuny.edu

I like to > be able to just apply an effect to individual regions on a track Hi Jonathan- I suspect what Teddy meant was that you could automate the bypass for the fx (which, of course, you can do now) and then regain the processing power by using the upcoming "freeze" feature. I agree that being able to destructively edit regions and set individual volumes, etc. would be cool. But the freeze function will accomplish a lot of the same things (although you need to think about it a little differently). best, Nathan ___ Nathan Rosenberg Music Production www.doghouseNYC.com The Doghouse NYC www.pianoVOX.com
