Render Tab (Audio Montage)

The Render tab allows you to mix down audio montages to audio files.

  • In the Audio Montage, click Render.

Source

Source pop-up menu

The Source pop-up menu allows you to select which part of the audio montage you want to process. The following options are available:

Whole Montage

Processes and renders the whole audio range.

Active Track

Processes and renders the active track from the start of the first clip until the end of the last clip. Muted clips are not rendered.

Specific Marked Region

Processes and renders a specific audio range to an independent file.

Specify the region to process on the pop-up menu.

Result

CD

Allows you to write a CD from the audio montage.

Unnamed File

If this option is activated, a temporary untitled file is rendered.

Named File

If this option is activated, you can specify a name for the rendered file.

Output

Name

Allows you to enter a name for the rendered file. Clicking the arrow icon opens a pop-up menu that offers you several naming options.

Location

Allows you to select a destination folder for the rendered files.

Format

Opens a pop-up menu where you can select a file format.

Options

Depending on the selected source, different options are available.

Bypass Master Section

If this option is activated, the plug-ins and gain of the Master Section are bypassed when rendering.

Add Reverb Tail

If this option is activated, the audio tail that is produced by effects such as reverb is included in the rendered file.

Some plug-ins do not transfer information on the tail duration to WaveLab Elements. In this case, this option has no effect. For such plug-ins, you can add the Silence plug-in to add extra samples at the end of the file.

Copy Markers

If this option is activated, the markers that are included in the range to process are copied to the rendered file.

Open Resulting Audio File

If this option is activated, every rendered file is opened in a new window.

Bypass Master Section on Resulting Audio File

If this option is activated, playback of the resulting audio file bypasses the entire Master Section. This setting can be toggled by clicking the button at the bottom right of the wave window or montage window.

Note

It is recommended to activate this option, because this way, you do not monitor new files through the effects that have already been applied to them.
