William W. Saunders, Jr. 55 Posted November 16, 2021 (edited) Hi Folks, Whenever I try to export a mix using the tag “{trackname},” I always get the name of the first track in the project, never the track I am exporting (which is always the last track). If I try to export it using the tag “{clipname},” I always get the name “. wav” In both instances, the track and clip names are the same. I’m attaching a couple of screenshots that show this. I only want track 42 and it is the only one selected and solo'd, with all others being unselected and muted. Is anybody else having the same problem? What am I missing here? Thanks, Bill Saunders Edited November 17, 2021 by William W. Saunders, Jr. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Vere 1,499 Posted November 16, 2021 (edited) It looks like you didn’t select a preset. Try the clips or the tracks options and choose the track you want. It should export that track using the name shown on the checklist Edited November 16, 2021 by John Vere Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andres Medina 117 Posted November 16, 2021 (edited) I had this problem too, and was successfully resolved in the latest update. Worth trying! Edited November 16, 2021 by Andres Medina Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
William W. Saunders, Jr. 55 Posted November 16, 2021 Thanks, guys. I am already patched up to 2021.11 Update 1. I've tried the presets before but not since the update so I'll give it a go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
William W. Saunders, Jr. 55 Posted November 17, 2021 I figured it out. I thought the name to be given to the exported track would show up under the tag window (see below). It actually exports correctly even though it doesn't show the actual correct track name beforehand. Thanks, Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scook 4,314 Posted November 17, 2021 The item circled in yellow is just an example of a file name generated by the entry immediately above it. Given multiple files may be created on export, no attempt is made to show exactly what file(s) are created by the export process. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When I saw that I just got frustrated and manually named the track - never bothering to actually try the export until recently. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
