Dave Maffris Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 (edited) I have a serious problem figuring this one out> I'm trying to make stems out of several tracks, which I used to do by using the bounce to track item, choosing my tracks and selecting a new track to bounce it to. When doing this now, it says the destination track is a new track, but when finished, it creates individual tracks for each selected track, and not a mix of the tracks to create a stem. If I'm doing something wrong, please tell me, because I absolutely cannot use this feature unless I can create and/or export the stems and not simply create single tracks when I attempt to bounce or export. Thanks! UPDATE August 28: I figured out what I had to do, and have solved the issue, I believe. Edited August 28, 2021 by Dave Maffris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I don't own any of the $$s daws, so no personal experience.) We've finally caught up, the Cubase one has been similar for a long time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This makes it much easier to export different stems by simply soloing tracks. Cubase only uses the active state at the time of export, which is much more limited. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keni Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Shouldn't the Export Audio toast go away after a timed amount. PITA to ignore and leave it there.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I want it there, what if I go to make a coffee whilst it's exporting the queue and miss it 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noel Borthwick Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Hi folks there is a new build 99 posted today that addresses several issues noted. See the main post. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm brainstorming out loud now: it could be a semi-automated process, so in the Bounce to Tracks dialog, there could be a "Sidechain sources" box, where you could select any side-chain source tracks that should be accounted for in the calculations, but the SC sources themselves would not generate any new bounced tracks (which is my main gripe with the current SC bouncing paradigm). I would love that, but would it be feasible? ? https://youtu.be/AX-NNen14rs There you go. Sorry for taking this long. Was busy with a Client. 13 hours ago, Noel Borthwick said: Sidechains and aux tracks are a tricky problem to handle automatically when exporting stems. We havent done that yet. Noel there's absolutely no reason to break your head over this. ☺I know im making this sound easy: The solution to you're answer above is because Aux tracks are not included in the Export or Bounce menus. Its only tracks and buses - that's why inhouse bounce on Aux tracks are not possible. Edited August 28, 2021 by Will_Kaydo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will. Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Excellent on the new 99build. Is it possible to make the menus dark as it was with the soft synth menu in the 98 build. Obviously the original look is fine. My complaint was just from being on the dark menu going suddenly into the white menu that caused that eye blurriness and sharp sting feeling yesterday. The dullness was soothing to the eye - especially if your studio has that dark vibe. Sorry for all this troubles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks a lot, @Will_Kaydo! ? Seems to work great! ? Ah, the concept requires that the track you want to bounce ("original track") is routed to an intermediary bus, before going to Master, and the you bounce with the intermediary bus as source. (If it goes straight to Master, you will get the sidechain source audio mixed in.) I think this is a faster and cleaner way, than the way described in the Cakewalk documentation. To not hi-jack this thread, I have continued that discussion here. Thanks again, Will!

Yes bouncing with source category buses works because the logic for bouncing buses is different from bouncing tracks. Track bounce only includes the signal flow from selected tracks whereas buses automatically take into account the upstream signal flow. The export process behind the scenes rewires the entire project routing based on the mix options. I plan to extend similar behavior to tracks and aux tracks when exporting but it will require some work. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I plan to extend similar behavior to tracks and aux tracks when exporting but it will require some work. I see, thanks. I'm humbly hoping you'll consider simplifying sidechain bouncing a little in the future. Until then, the clever trick of bus-bouncing works pretty well. ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great stuff Noel. Is it really necessary for tracks though? I mean sidechain with tracks serves a different purpose. It's double the work for you and an unnecessary feature. Only do this for Aux tracks. They're more flexible than Buses. ☺ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
