Render to New Track
From the Tools menu, choose Render to New Track to mix multiple tracks to a single track. This function is
similar to track bouncing in the analog world.
When your project contains many tracks and effects, mixing down can help conserve processing
power.
When you render multiple tracks, any envelope or track effects that you have applied will be rendered into
the new track. The original source files remain unaffected, and the new track(s) will be saved to a new file.
1.
Click the Solo button for the tracks that you want to mix down. If no tracks are soloed, the
rendered track will match the Master Bus output. Create a time selection if you want to mix down a
portion of your project.
Video tracks will be rendered into a single video track, and audio tracks will be rendered to a single
stereo audio track.
2. From the Tools menu, choose Render to New Track. The Render As dialog is displayed.
3. Use the controls in the Render As dialog to choose the location and format you want to use to save
your rendered track. For more information, see "Rendering Projects (Render As)" on page 515.
4. Click the Render button. A dialog is displayed to show rendering progress.
5. When the mixing is complete, the new track appears in the track list.
6. After the new track appears, you can delete the original tracks.
