Timing Offset slider: Shift the position of trigger notes earlier (negative values move

them to the left) or later (positive values move them to the right). This value should
normally be set to 0.0 ms (which places the MIDI trigger notes exactly at transient
timing positions), but may need to be adjusted when using your own, or third-party,
instruments.

“Set average attack time” button: Set the average slicing position offset of all regions

on the source audio track.

Click OK to confirm the action.

Clicking OK resets the vertical zoom of the original audio track, mutes its regions if you
selected the Replacement option, and deselects the track. MIDI trigger notes for the EXS24

Bouncing Regions and Tracks in Place

There are two different types of “in place” bounces that can be performed in
Logic Pro: region-based bounces and track-based bounces. This allows you to bounce
selected material and place the result at its original position in the arrange timeline—in
other words, in place.

Using Bounce in Place, you can only process audio or software instrument tracks, or the
regions on those tracks. It is not possible to perform an in place bounce of a region routed
to a MIDI channel strip.

When bouncing in place, the audio file format of the bounce (sample rate and resolution)
is determined by your audio recording settings, and the bounce file is created in the
current recording folder.

The Bounce in Place function might, at first glance, seem similar to the Freeze function.

. To clarify which function best fits which situation,

here’s a short comparison:

• Both save CPU power by rendering all effect (or instrument) plug-ins of a track.

• The Bounce in Place function makes it easy to access (and edit) the bounced audio file.

• Freeze allows you to return to the original MIDI programming (or audio regions) and

automation data.

• Freeze (in 32 Bit Float) safeguards against volume clipping.

Bouncing Regions in Place

You can render one or more selected regions on audio or software instrument tracks into
a new audio file, including all active plug-ins and automation data.
