Pre-rendering shall +be "layered". Pre-rendering shall act like a transparent audio cache: +Audio data is (redundantly) stored, wasting memory in order to save CPU. + +<P> +That is: Each track owns one or more wave-recordings of the length of +the song. If the user calls "pre-render" on a track, then this track +is played quasi-solo (see below), and the raw audio data is recorded +and stored in the "layer 0" wave recording. If the user has any effects +set up to be applied, then each effect is applied on a different layer +(creating layer 1, layer 2 etc). + +<P> +This means, that also MIDI and drum tracks can have effects (which +usually only operate on audio, but we HAVE audio data because of this +prerendering). + +<P> +Furthermore, MusE by default does not send MIDI events to the synthesizers +but instead just plays back the last layer of the prerecording (for +MIDI tracks), or does not pipe the audio data through the whole plugin +chain (causing cpu usage), but instead just plays back the last layer. +The hearable result shall be the same. + +<P> +Once the user changes any parameter (automation data or plugins for +wave tracks, MIDI events or effect plugin stuff for MIDI tracks), +then MusE shall generate the sound for this particular track in the +"old" way (send MIDI data to synthes, or pipe audio data through plugins). +(So that the user will not even notice that MusE actually pre-renderered +stuff.) Either MusE automatically records this while playback (if possible) +or prompts the user to accordingly set up his cabling and then record +it. Or (temporarily) disables prerecording for this track, falling back +to the plain old way of generating sound. + +<P> +<SPAN CLASS="textit">Quasi-solo</SPAN> means: For wave tracks, just solo the track. For MIDI +tracks, mute all tracks which are not on the same synth (channel?), +and mute all <SPAN CLASS="textit">note</SPAN> events which are not on the quasi-soloed track. +This causes MusE to still play any controller events from different +tracks, because they might have effects on the quasi-soloed track. (You +can have notes on channel 1 on one track and controller stuff on channel +1 on another track; then you would need quasi-solo to get proper results.) + +<P> + +<H2><A NAME="SECTION00422000000000000000"> +Use cases</A> +</H2> + +<H4><A NAME="SECTION00422010000000000000"> +Saving CPU</A> +</H4> +On slow systems, this is neccessary for songs with lots of, or demanding +(or both) soft synthes / plugins. Even if the synth or plugin is so +demanding that your system is not able to produce sound in real-time, +then with this feature you'll be able to use the synth (this will make +editing pretty laggish, because for a change you need to re-render at +least a part before you can listen to it, but better than being unable +to use the synth at all!) + +<P> + +<H4><A NAME="SECTION00422020000000000000"> +Exporting as audio project</A> +</H4> +Using pre-rendering on all tracks, you easily can export your project +as multi-track audio file (for use with Ardour or similar DAWs). +Just take the last layer of each track, and write the raw audio data +into the file, and you're done.
