Question

WAV Export missing a track

I'm on the fifth episode of my podcast and the first 5 have been great. However this time I'm having trouble exporting the final session. When I try to export as a WAV file, as I've always done, my guest's track is completely silent. But when I export as an MP3, everything works fine. Has anyone experienced this before? Or do you have any speculation as to why this is happening?

If you drill down through the Export menu, it will tell you exactly what will be exported, and you can change it if you want to. Looks like this: (the export menu is greyed out when an option is selected)

Yes, thank you - I'm familiar with the export menu. The problem is that I'm getting Track 2 when I export an MP3 file but not when I export a WAV file. The mixdown menu is the same in both scenarios as far as I can tell.

It's possible that you have a corrupted session file, although this does sound quite unlikely. If you mute all the other tracks and just export track two on its own, what do you get - silence? Usually when something like this happens, it turns out to be some sort of a track routing issue... to get any further, I fear we'd need to see the entire session layout. Are you using an existing template for the session?
