Loading a Project that uses the External Insert Plug-in
When you load a project with the External Insert plug-in (or select a preset
in the External Insert interface), SONAR checks to see if the exact same
ports are assigned as when the project was saved. SONAR’s port
assignments can change if you load the project on a different hardware
configuration or change driver models. If there is any discrepancy between
the port assignments that were saved and the ports that are used in the
current configuration, the ports are set to “None”. Doing so avoids
accidentally loading projects and having audio routed in an unexpected
way.
Bouncing Audio that Uses the External Insert Plug-in
If you bounce audio in a project that uses the External Insert plug-in, the
bounce operation must be performed in real-time.
When bouncing audio data, SONAR will automatically detect the presence
of any External Insert plug-ins (see External Insert Plug-in) in tracks or
buses, and disallow the bounce operation if the “Fast Bounce” mix option is
enabled.
If you need to bounce audio in a project that contains any External Insert
plug-ins, you have two choices:
• Disable Fast Bounce in the mixdown settings.
• Bypass all active External Insert plug-in's before bouncing.

Real-time Bounce
