    ouch...

    ableton + ni blocks + ni replika + ni solid bus comp = slow render

    i think it is that my blocks sound is too automated / complicated.

    anyone else have a similar issue?

    send a - replika
    send b - solid bus comp

    5 midi tracks

    1 - drum rack w/ 12 samples
    0% replika 100% solid bus comp

    2 - drum rack w/ 4 samples
    66% replika 15% solid bus comp

    3 - drum rack w/ 1 sample
    100% replika 0% solid bus comp

    4 - massive
    50% replika 25% solid bus comp

    5 - blocks
    75% replika 15% solid bus comp

    ...ish...

    it had no problem being played live as I recorded the performance from scene to scene. I was able to listen to playback effortlessly as I adjusted the instruments and delay / compression settings before export.

    I did no midi consolidation or track freezing before export. I never do, so today's workflow is no different than other days. This export time is far and beyond anything ever experienced.

    i have had time to send a friend a mastering article i found while looking into this slow render issue as it's the first time i have ever experienced it.

    i've also been able to compose this and i am still only at 36% of Searching for maximum amplitude: Master.

    • it may have had a process interruption or something. As soon as I went to check the status of my processors, everything wrapped up in an instant. strange.imbecile
    • Shouldn't really be THIS bad but some 3rd party plugs do oversampling on render, check all the quality settingsWeyland
    • it must have been an interrupted process, other exports didn't yield a similar experience. In other news, ableton auto updated something today.imbecile
