Originally posted by Eric J In Logic, you have to change a setting to get the button to show up. 1. Right-click any track in the Arrange window and choose Configure Track Header 2. A dialogue will appear, place a check next to the Freeze option. It is a green square with an asterisk (*) in it. 3. Press close and you'll see the freeze button appear on each track. When you freeze track(s) in Logic, you press the button to choose which tracks to freeze. Then you have to hit Play to begin the freeze process. Once a track is frozen, the only settings that can be changed are Volume, Mute, Solo, and Routing.

This is enormously helpful, thank you.

Originally posted by meriter I'll have you know that I'm running Logic 8 on a dual 1.0 ghz PowerPC G4 with 1 gig of Ram. This comp was new in 2000. I'm amazed at how well it does actually. I feel like a crybaby for posting this thread now that I put things into perspective.

I made that comment with a lot of tongue in cheek

my sole purpose for buying a macbook pro was so these problems wouldnt occure..now im not sure..

Yeah... at least Logic gives you a nice reminder. Cubase tends to just peg that CPU and turn the audio to absolute rubbish.

At least Apple is nice enough to tell you can't continue!

what?

The question is, which drugs?

I vote sherm.

Not a Mac user but I have long struggled with this issue (haven't we all?) Some things that have worked for me:-

- Bounce anything you can to audio and re-insert into the mix. Do your automation and fx prior to bouncing then turn off the synth and all fx once re-inserted as audio. Sometimes doing the automation / fx prior to bouncing isn't possible / practical for the sound so you may have to re-apply your fx etc to the audio - but at least you will save some CPU by not using the synth.

IMPORTANT!!! Keep your midi data, automation and fx settings after you have bounced the audio. You will inevitably want to tweak and need to re-bounce.

- Get some hardware - offload some of your processing into an outboard synth or fx units.

Always bounce to audio, always!

Macs do work, just like PC's, but a 1ghz g4?

I'm amazed you can even send an email with that thing.

How many of you are running a 1ghz 10 year old PC with cubase 5 and a bunch of new plugins. I bet that works nice

I too struggled with a 7 year old PC for music production, but software has constantly moved on and the requirements, according to moores law have increased by 64 times since that g4 was new. As I remember that would have also been one of the base models at that time.

Get a new mac and don't look back (or at system overload errors again). I got an imac a year ago and see that warning maybe once a month if I'm unlucky.

This computer works great. It does everything I need it to do, and well. Music production, design, video editing, you name it. The stuff macs are designed to do. I just shouldn't have been trying to push it so hard. Sometimes I forget my computer is almost 10 years old.

I would take this obsolete mac over a brand new PC any day.

where are all the mac fan boys now? I seem to remember a recent post about "peace of mind and stability" as to why the entire world should convert to MAC.

UNIX is the reason for switching to Mac. Not because it's a mac.

BASH! BASH! SUDO SUDO!

:-|

I'm not attached to either platform... I switched to production on mac because my laptop happened to be faster than my desktop at the time...

...but now that my desktop (custom built) smokes my macbook pro... I'm back to producing on a PC.

I'm all about what's fastest.

PS: OFF TOPIC!

I feel for you guys, there is nothign more frustrating than your system not being able to cope.

I cured my issues by getting a UAD card and using the effects on that.

Also more ram helped but the UAD was just what my system needed.
