[ardour-users] can't bounce with effects

[tim]

Can anyone tell me how to a) automate without crashing, or b) bounce 
with effects?
I want to fade a delayed signal in and out on a track.  To work around 
automation crashing or freezing my computer, I'm trying to bounce the 
track without any dry signal while manually changing the gain slider. 
I've tried sending the wet output of the track I'm bouncing to the new 
track, and only the dry signal shows up once the track is recorded.  
I've also tried using a send but no signal at all gets through when 
recording even though its there when playing.
Thanks for any hints,
Tim
