I'd guess this is due to the monotype tracks, can't have both audio and MIDI on the same tracks.musiclover55547 wrote:I will add, however, that I am in utter awe that Live does not have a proper "bounce in place" mechanism, though I do no there are somewhat sluggish workarounds for this shortcoming. They have the amazing new Simpler yet no BIP. That's crazy.
The workarounds (duplicate track-freeze-flatten for whole track, or freeze track-drag&drop the MIDI clip to an audio track-unfreeze track, or resample (record) time selection on an audio track) could be sluggish depending on your needs, but at least so far work fine for my purposes. I don't see immediate use for having sections of audio on a VSTi track tbh, I use the freeze-drag-unfreeze method which is really fast for bouncing short sections to audio tracks.
What could be neat is if we could drag&drop MIDI clips straight to Simpler, and Live would do the rendering on the fly
