mt & mastering
Reply with quote

In the light of the recent discussions on mastering, I have a request. Since exporting each instrument playing solo, as I'm doing right now, is a bit annoying, how about an exporting option that allow you to "export all tracks" (which won't work especially good when you use effects and have samples that are playing on more than one track with effects), or even better "export each instrument in song individually to wav" ... Ehm, wording could be better, I just hope you get it Smile

Just don't forget that processing the individual tracks is called mixing, not mastering. d'oh!

If by "processing" you mean "exporting" in mt, then I guess I'm in error.... If not, then um, yes, I will remember Razz

no, by processing he means doing *something* to it, basically (put effects on it, pan it, change volume, whatever). this is what you probably want to do with the seperate tracks right? load all of 'em in a different program, to mix it in that program? mastering is (as the word implies) done on the master track. only left and right. no seperate instruments. mixing is where you're processing all different tracks (instruments, whatever) seperately. after this comes mastering.


what is hip?

*squeak*!

I guess I'm requesting a more userfriendly exporting function for mixing then... But this is still in the light of the recent mastering threads.

Mastering is making sure the final mixdown is optimized for most purposes. Working on individual tracks is indeed mixing (mixing is not just about levels).

A multi-track export would be technically easier to do than a multi-instrument export though. On the other hand, it is good practise to organize your song to have only one instruments playing per track.

Batch export. That's the wording I was looking for. Thx!
Yan: I haven't written MT or anything... But can it be so hard to automate the process of solo'ing each instrument in turn and exporting them?

Sorry, my technical lingo. As Walter Vos said though. Smile

Anything you're not applying to the overall mix is called mixing. Mixing is the processing of combining, or mixing the audio tracks (instruments) together into a mixdown that you then proceed to process through mastering. Now don't forget. Wink
