Bounce regions in place in Logic Pro for Mac

You can bounce regions in place, creating audio files that are placed at the same position as the original regions in the Tracks area. Using Bounce in Place, you can render one or more selected regions on audio or software instrument tracks, including all active plug-ins and automation data. You set the bounce destination and additional options in the Bounce in Place dialog.

When multiple regions are selected, you can choose whether the result is:

  • A single audio file

  • An audio file per track, extending from the beginning of the first selected region to the end of the last selected region

  • An audio file for each selected region

In all cases, the resulting audio file(s) may include an audio tail from any effects extending past the end of the source region.

Note: A bounce in place is performed offline for audio and software instrument tracks with internal sound sources. When audio or MIDI signals are routed to external sound sources, Logic Pro performs a real-time bounce.

Bounce one or more regions in place

  1. In Logic Pro, select one or more regions on an audio or software instrument track.

  2. Do one of the following:

    • Choose File > Bounce > Regions in Place (or use the corresponding key command).

    • Control-click the selected regions, then choose Bounce Regions in Place from the shortcut menu.

  3. In the Bounce Regions In Place dialog, define the following parameters:

    Figure. Bounce Regions in Place dialog.

    • Name field: Enter a name for the bounce file in the field. The name defaults to the region name of the first selected region, with the extension _bip added at the end.

    • Destination buttons: Define the track on which the bounce file is placed. You have two options.

      • New Track: Creates a new audio track below the selected track and places the bounce file(s) on that track.

      • Selected Track: Places the bounce file(s) on the selected track, replacing the selected region(s).

      Important: If the selected track contains the selected regions, then those regions are replaced when bouncing. To select a different track without deselecting the selected regions, choose Logic Pro > Settings > General, click Editing, then deselect "Select regions on track selection."

    • Destination File pop-up menu:

      • One File: The bounce results in a single audio file (default).

      • One File per Track: The bounce results in an audio file for each track that extends from the beginning of the first selected region to the end of the last selected region.

      • One File per Region: The bounce results in an audio file for each selected region.

    • Source buttons: Define what happens to the source regions after bouncing, when the New Track Destination button is selected. When the Selected Track button is selected and the selected track contains the source regions, they are replaced. The options are:

      • Leave: Leaves the source region unaltered after processing the bounce file.

      • Mute: Mutes the source region after processing the bounce file.

      • Delete: Deletes the source region from the original track after processing the bounce file.

    • Include Instrument Multi-Outputs checkbox: Select to include aux channel strips with multi-output signals of the instrument in the bounce process. Otherwise, only the channel strips of tracks with selected regions are bounced.

    • Bypass Effect Plug-ins checkbox: Select to bypass all plug-ins on the source track during the bounce process.

    • Add Effects Tail to File checkbox: Select to continue the bounce process after the end of the bounce range—either to the end of the cycle or to the end of the last selected region—until there is no longer a signal. Otherwise, only the bounce range is bounced.

    • Add Effects Tail to Region checkbox: Select to include the entire bounce file in the bounce region. Otherwise, the bounce region only includes the bounce range.

    • Include Volume/Pan Automation checkbox: Select to have volume and pan automation performed during the bounce process, with their result influencing the bounce file. Otherwise, the volume and pan automation is simply copied, not performed.

    • Normalize pop-up menu: Choose between three states of normalization:

      • Off: Turns off normalization.

      • Overload Protection Only: Allows downward normalization in case of overloads—levels above 0 dB, which would lead to clipping—but no normalization in case of lower levels.

      • On: Allows full bidirectional normalization.

    • Restore Defaults button: Click to set all parameters in the dialog to their default settings.

  4. Click OK to trigger an in-place bounce of the selected region or regions.

    Note: When you click OK, the settings chosen above are stored in the Logic Pro for Mac settings and recalled when you next access the Bounce Regions in Place function.
