[Solved]Exporting stems in a group

Hi guys,

Each time I have to export stems from Renoise, I have to destroy my groups or else I will have multiple takes of the same sound.

If I have a ride that is in a group cymbals that is in a group drums, I will have 3 ride sounds on my stems!

Which is obviously not what I want.

Is there a way to control this? To say to Renoise “don’t export sound twice, only export the final track in the routing”.

I just sent stems for mastering and I’ve been told by the sound engineer that it’s a bloody mess.

Cheers!

No, no way to control this.

What you can do is name the tracks that you want to send to the engineer. A simple thing I do is use CAPS to name group tracks that should be used for mixing. You could also prefix / suffix them with STEM.

So in your case I might have:

*** DRUMS

** cymbals

  • ride

Then when I export everything, I know to only send over the DRUMS.wav file.

Basically, just use some naming convention to identify the files to be used for mixing / mastering.

It might seem annoying or like extra work, but it allows you to save multiple layers of sounds to mess with later if you want…

Ok, thank you for your response.

Cheers!
