The rendered results include any device or clip settings and automation. There is also the Flatten feature in Ableton Live, that in combination with Freeze can be used as way to resample. It completely replaces the original clips and all devices with a new audio file. You can use Unfreeze Track to undo it and get access to the disabled parameters again. Mixer controls such as volume, panning, and send amounts are all still available to adjust or automate. This is indicated by a blue hue over all the disabled elements. A frozen track no longer allows editing clip settings, device parameters or automation. Using it renders pre-fader bounces of the track's output signal including all devices and automation one bounce for the Arrangement View, and one for each clip in the Session View. Freeze & Flattenįreeze Track is a feature in Ableton Live to help you save CPU. We're going to look at how each method works and what its pros and cons are, so that you can always choose the best possible option for the task at hand. Now, Ableton Live is known for its varied routing options and these allow for different approaches to resampling audio. The waveforms can also be used as a visual aid. It can also be a good way to avoid fiddling endlessly with details. Or you'd like to commit MIDI to audio to use audio specific features like warping, reversing, slicing or resample effects with randomised features. Perhaps you're working with CPU hungry plug-ins. There are plenty of reasons why you might want to resample to audio in your music productions.
