number of your Cakewalk product listed below it.
Apply Audio Effects dialog
This dialog box gives you several options when applying audio effects:
Delete the effects from the track effects bin. This option lets you either keep your effects
patched in the selected track(s) after the effects have been applied, or delete the effect from the
track(s).
Fast bounce. This option is normally enabled but should be disabled if the track you are bouncing
contains the External Insert plug-in (see “External Insert plug-in” on page 926). If you bounce audio
that uses the External Insert plug-in, the bounce operation must be performed in real-time.
Audible bounce. The Audible bounce option is only available when in real-time bounce mode
(when Fast bounce is unchecked). When Audible bounce is unchecked, no audio output will be
heard during the bounce process. When in real-time bounce mode (Fast bounce unchecked) and
Audible bounce is enabled, you can hear the output of the mixdown.
Note: Depending on the gainstages used in the project and the mixdown options selected–such
as bouncing with source category assigned to Tracks, or with mute/solo or automation disabled
in the bounce settings or while freezing tracks–the output may be louder or softer than during
normal playback. Please be sure to turn down the master output level before using real-time
audible bounce under these scenarios to avoid the possibility of speaker damage.
