Subject:Rendering Same Size Tracks Posted by: treblemaker Date:11/13/2006 7:22:31 PM I’m a real newbie here and have some questions about transporting an Acid project to another recording system. The project has multiple tracks which are different lengths. The solo and vocal tracts start somewhere inside the tune. The recording engineer wants me to export the project so that each track is exactly the same length and they all start at the same exact spot. In this way he feels that we will minimize synchronization problems when we move the tracks to his system. I guess I could solo an individual track, render it to a new track, deselect it, solo the next track, render it to a new track, etc, etc… and get the results I want. I tried it on a sample song and it seemed to work. Is there an easier way to render all the individual tracks of the whole song at once, retaining the track names? Thanks - j

When you render, check the option [X] Save each track as a separate file and it will render each track as the full length just as recording engineer wants. ~jr

Any way to keep them at the same volume or is "rendering" the wrong way for me to be trying to do this? Thanks again guys - j

So you have to look at the fader setting and the master fader volume settings. If you want to make sure the files are at the same volume they currently are, then set both the track fader and master fader to 0dB.
