Question

How to export multiple audio tracks as separate files?

Hello! I know how to export the audio as its own file, but is it possible to export each audio track as a separate file (i.e. three files for three tracks)? This is necessary for me because I send the audio files to someone who does audio mastering, and they need each audio stem to be separate. 

 

Thanks!

If I understand your question, I suggest two ways.  

 

First, try turning off (muting) two of three tracks and output the audio.  You should get one track at a time.  

 

Second, try "Save As" three times, one for each audio track.  Then open the individual projects, unlink any video and delete all but one audio track.  Then export it.

Hi, Whsprague, thanks for replying. By muting, do you mean disabling?

 

I've been doing something similar to that. I disable all audio tracks but one, then export the audio, and repeat for as many tracks as exist. But this is very time consuming and difficult. I'm working with videos about half an hour made up of hundreds of tiny clips. Some are attached to video so when I select an audio track it selects various videos, too, and then enables or disables all those. The problem is that I often have some of those videos permanently disabled. If I disable and then enable an entire track, video clips which I had permanently disabled are now enabled. I have to scroll through a half hour time line detaching dozens of audio from video. 

 

I was hoping there was a faster way to do this, an option where you can select to export a single track.
