Bouncing multi tracks (individually?) at the same time

PT has Export as AAF or OMF.

No need, just select the desired format in the export window and PT should (and I say should because 32bit ip seems to be broken) convert everything on export.

You can bounce busses too, not only outputs.

Is it possible to bounce all 20 tracks to individual files all at the same time...this would take about 5 mins total.

Or, do I have do (20) separate bounces??....errrrrr... that would take about about an 90 mins to do that...

thanks,

You can do this to save time:

1) Create a send on each track, each to a new audio track. You can name all those new tracks with the prefix STEM so you can identify them easily later.

2) Record on all of those new tracks. This way you will have a bounce of each track including any plugin processing.

3) You can find the created files in your audio folder. If you need them in a different sample rate, then go to step 4.

4) Select the stem tracks. Go to the File menu and export selected tracks as new session. Set the desired sample rate and bit depth in your new session. Then go to the audio folder of that new session to find your files.

This may sound a little complex, but you can do all of this in less than 10 minutes.

Consolidate, select the consolidated regions, Control + Shift + K. Select bit depth and sample rate as needed, save into a new folder. There you go.

If you need the effects printed you just Commit the tracks instead of consolidate, and select the committed regions.

You can access that same "export clips as files" from the drop-down menu at the top of the clips panel (the panel you expand on the right-hand side of the edit window.)

"Export clips as files" will do the conversion he asked for too.

The export clips as files dialogue offers conversion of sample rate and bit depth.

Commit -> Export clips as files. Should take about 1 minute, and achieve the same result.

It's not missing. You just have to know how to do it.

That's what I was trying to say in post #3, easiest way I've found
