I must be missing something, but now that we have track commit with PT 12., I'm not understanding why getting track freeze in the next version (12.4?) is so important. What advantage does track freeze offer really when we have track commit? Isn't the end result the same? If you commit an instrument track and make it inactive...isn't that basically the same outcome as track freeze? And if you want to re-tweak the VI on the instrument track, just reactivate, edit, and re-commit. What am I not getting?

What if you've since done loads of automation on the committed track?

1. Copy the automation back to the VI track, then commit.
2. Commit the VI to a new audio track, copy the new audio onto the old audio track w/ the automation. |

Yes yes yes I know how to do it, the point is it "freeze" will up more resources and you can work on automation etc without having to get into all that secretarial crap.

If I understand Freeze correctly, once frozen, you couldn't add automation to that track anyways. So, in that sense, commit is a better option.

Only to the VIs I would have thought. A totally "frozen" track would be no use to man nor beast.

Thanks for the video. I get what it does and I understand why its a feature many have wanted to see for along time. I'm not sure that it speeds up workflows all that much though. We're talking nanoseconds here. But in any case, it will be nice to have it available!

The other advantage I see is : if you have native plugs on tracks inducing delay and you want to do a quick overdub , you just freeze them for the recording and recover them afterwards
