Bouncing multi tracks (individually?) at the same time

[teacherman]

I've got a session of 20 tracks.

I have a song that is 4:00 mins in length and that is comprised of 20 audio tracks.

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,

Consolidate all the tracks and then go into your audio folder of the tune and you should see the time you consolidated. Take those tracks.

If you have used plugins and automation then I would commit with all boxes checked, then go to the clip list (with the new tracks selected) and do right click export as individual files so you get the export dialog box.

I did consolidate. But, the session is @ 48K/24 Bit. The client wants all the individual files to be 44.1K/16 bit. So, I do have to do the bounce to make the conversion.

First of all, you can only bounce outputs, not tracks. So if you wish to bounce your 20 tracks you need to have 20 outputs set for your tracks. If you haven't set it up like that in your mix, you need to bounce all tracks individually.

This is as close as you can get with the OP intention. But then you need some batch processing to change bit depth and/or sample rate.

I think it is Ultimate-only feature but you can have more than one bounce source on a single bounce job. But as I said, before that you need to have multiple bounce sources (outputs) and not just have 20 tracks routed to 2-track master.

Okay, I guess I'll have to bill the client another 90 mins of studio time....

Sorry forgot about commiting. What about saving as an AAF after commit

This kind of feature is what PT has been missing and other daws do (like cubase)
