If you apply Commit Tracks to an Instrument track hosting a plug-in with AOS routing to several Aux Input tracks, what option becomes available?

• A. Merge all outputs
• B. Delete the auxiliary inputs
• C. The option to commit/freeze associated paths
• D. Disable the instrument plugin

Answer: (C)

When you Commit Tracks on an instrument track that uses a plug-in with multi-output routing to several Aux Input tracks, Pro Tools can render not just the instrument’s main signal but also the entire routing path into a single, consolidated audio result. The option to commit/freeze associated paths lets you include those auxiliary routing paths in the commit. This means the instrument and all of its outputs routed to the Aux Input tracks get rendered together, producing a self-contained track and allowing you to free CPU by freezing the path. This is the best choice because it captures the complete sound and routing in one commitment, whereas others would either leave the routing separate, remove routing, or simply disable the plug-in without consolidating the signal.
