MrMatrix Posts: 1	Posted - Sat May 10, 2003 1:10 pm  I have a piece that I've recently done with about 60 tracks & it's about 56 of them that has the same fx. But everytime I try to mix it down the program will stop responding and will shutdown. Somebody please help me out.

You must have an awesome machine8)! There are several ways you could tackle this. You could submix groups of tracks at a time (say 10 tracks) then mix those together for the final mix. You could try locking the individual tracks (that's like a submix for a single track so it doesn't have to apply the FX in real time) or.....you could go into each track and apply the FX destructively and then do your mix. I hope one of these helps, let us know:D _________________ Mark nil desperandum - nunc est bibendum

So that's crying out for the tracks to be assigned to a bus, and apply the effects once only there. See the software's help file for details, or let us know if you have specific difficulty in trying that route. - Ozpeter

I would have thought that kind of overall FX was better applied during mastering rather than during mixing:???: _________________ Mark nil desperandum - nunc est bibendum
