[Rwp] Ivory?

[Chris Belle]

This is relevant to theory for rendering and bouncing for any DAW so 
I'll comment here.

With sampling based instruments, especially one as heavy as ivory, there 
is a lot of disk i/o going on.
With that many samples
velocity layers, round robin and such it has to slow down to render that.
A 5400 rpm drive would really bog down a sample library,
especially one as huge as ivory, one thing you might consider doing is 
to freeze your trak
which may takesome time as well,
but then when you render your project, it should go normally at that point.

There are also certain synths I have used that just don't render well 
with a fast bounce,
and this is why in most good DAW's
there still exists the ability to do it in real time.
Some time certain controlers don't move just like they should,
with a fast bounce,
I've even had one situation and my experience is mostly with sonar but 
this actually happened,
I had a complex aray of stuf going on, and when I rendered with the daw,
some of the stuf wasn't taking.
It would play just fine, but not render with everything like it should.

I ended up dumping in real time by playing and recording in to another 
set of input tracks,
in real time to get it perfect.
This is a rare occurance,
as most modern vst's and DAW's are designed to sync up together and get 
it all right,
but it can happen.
So it doesn't surprise me that ivory won't go super fast in a render.
