Bouncing seems to me much more of a PITA... in order to have a bounce on a bus object act like a freeze, freeing up CPU resources while leaving you with control over volume et al., you'd have to : 1) solo the bus, set it to unity, set the output object to unity, bounce 2) create a new object for the bounced audio, create a new track for the new object, drag the bounced audio into the arrange 3) mute all the tracks going into the bus 4) bypass all the effects on the bus object And if you need to tweak any parameter on any track or the bus itself later on, you have to undo and redo steps 1, 2, and 4... whee! Freeze button anyone? u b i k
