Hi all,
Thanks for the great input and very interesting insights.
I think Robin nailed exactly the kind of scenario I was thinking of.
In my case it's mostly recording into Ardour for the soundtrack I've
been working on for about 10 months.
I understand my workflow is probably a bit corner case, but being able
to speed-up inter-application recording would have been nice simply
because in Ardour I would then do mixing, effects and more.
So in the sequencer I would be doing the more musical/compositional
aspects (in sync with the video), obviously trying to get the overall
timbre aspects as near as possible as my idea/feel, but usually
preferring dry instruments.
In Ardour I may be adding small sound 'design' effects/details (e.g. a
reverse cymbal sample to) and fine-synchronize stuff (I am a bit of a
maniac when it comes to syncs working with video).
So, to respond to people talking about manual mixing/listening... still
a lot of that and manual crafting down to the (video) frame!
But the general idea is that digital-to-digital would be as efficient
(and fast) as possible, exactly to concentrate on the more creative parts :)
Lorenzo.
PS: Besides the topic, I wonder if proposing something (a workshop?)
about this workflow/experinca at LAC2017 might be of interest to the
community... Saint-Etienne is an alluring location :)

On the practical side, what does freewheel gain?
e.g. Export a 90 min soundtrack (or podcast or concert,..) in just under
5 minutes (or thereabouts; ~ 1.0 / DSP-load faster, export usually also
happens with larger buffers with decreases DSP load)

Interesting.
Presumably that means things like live mixing are out.
Yes, in case of soundtacks you do all the mixing beforehand anyway.
Change a fader and
you've no idea where it will actually appear in the final audio :(
Since freewheeling decouples jack from the hardware, the fader's signal
goes nowhere.
In Ardour's case you can't touch any GUI control while exporting, but
yes, if you could then sure. Still that's besides the point, just go and
smoke a cigarette while things are exporting.
I had this a couple of times. A Very long session, then next iteration
of sound-design a small change somewhere around 01:12:00:00 is needed ..
and I don't want to wait for 90+ min only to bounce the whole thing
again. That'd be half a a pack of cigarettes :)
2c,
robin
