Render Selection

You can render selections of audio events and/or MIDI parts with default settings or with customized settings. The Render Selection dialog allows you to customize the selection render settings.

The following settings are available:

As Separate Events

One or more tracks are created. These contain separate events or parts that are saved as separate audio files.

As Block Events

One or more tracks are created. These contain adjacent events/parts that are combined to blocks. Every block is saved as a separate audio file.

As One Event

One or more tracks are created. These contain the events/parts that are combined to one event/part. Every combination is saved as a separate audio file.

Dry

If this option is activated, all effects and panner settings are copied to new audio tracks. The resulting audio tracks keep the formats of their source tracks. A mono track results in a mono track, for example.

Channel Settings

If this option is activated, all effects are rendered into the resulting audio files. This includes insert effects, channel strip settings, group channel settings, and FX send channel settings. Panner settings are transferred to the new audio tracks. The resulting audio tracks keep the formats of their source tracks. A mono track results in a mono track, for example.

Complete Signal Path

If this option is activated, the complete signal path is rendered into the new audio files, including all channel settings, group channel settings, FX send channel settings, and panner settings. The new audio track is created without effects. Stereo balance panner settings are activated. The resulting audio file format is determined by the output channel of the source track. A mono track that is routed to a stereo bus results in a stereo audio file.

Complete Signal Path + Master FX

If this option is activated, the complete signal path and the master bus settings are rendered into the resulting audio files. This includes all channel settings, group channel settings, FX send channel settings, and panner settings. The resulting audio file format is determined by the output channel of the source track. A mono track that is routed to a stereo bus results in a stereo audio file.

Mix Down to One Track

By default, rendering multiple tracks or selections from multiple tracks at once results in multiple new audio tracks. To create one resulting audio track from all your source material, activate Mix Down to One Track.

Mix Down to One Track is only available if several tracks are selected and Dry (Transfer Channel Settings) is deactivated.

Tail Size

Allows you to set a tail size in seconds or bars and beats for the rendered files. This adds time at the end of the rendered file to allow reverb and delay tails to fully fade out.

Bit Depth

Allows you to set the bit depth for the resulting material to 16 bit, 24 bit, 32 bit, 32 bit float, or 64 bit float.

Name

Allows you to enter a custom name for the rendered files. To do this, unlock this option by clicking the lock icon.

Path

Allows you to select a custom folder to which the resulting .wav files are rendered.

Keep Source Events Unchanged

If this option is selected, the source tracks remain unchanged.

Mute Source Events

If this option is selected, the source tracks are automatically muted.
