Bouncing to individual audio tracks in one go

Hi Sonar friends,
 
I am using Sonar X3 Producer with M-Audio Fast track pro audio interface. I would like to create individual audio tracks out of my midi tracks in one go.
I have loaded a Session Drummer and have created three MIDI tracks: first one with Kick, second one with Snare and the third with Hi Hat.
Can I mixdown/bounce those MIDI tracks into three audio tracks in one go? 
 
If I freeze, everything goes to the same audio track.
 
I would like to have a Kick a Snare and the HiHat in differents audio tracks for EQ purposes.
 
Thank you very much.

    You should add audio tracks and connect them to different outputs of Session Drummer. Then connect different instruments in Session Drummer's mixer to different outputs. And generally you don't need separate midi tracks for Kick, Snare and Hi-Hats.

    When inserting a synth, select All Synth Outputs, stereo or mono, which will create a track for each output the synth has, hence the name.
    Then when you want to bounce the synth's outputs to audio, solo the synth, go to Tracks> Bounce To Tracks and select Tracks as the source. Click OK. That should render all of the synth's outputs to separate audio tracks
    This in in X3 and previous versions. Don't know about Splat.

    A pertinent question might be, why do you need just the audio tracks to work on?
     
    There are maybe 2 or 3 reasons for wanting this (collaboration/for mixing by a different engineer etc) but there are several more reasons for keeping it all Midi if your machine can handle it
     
    Just wondering, that's all

    Hi 57Gregy,
     
    Something is not working in here with sessiondrummer1. Even if I insert this instrument as mono it inserts 24 stereo audio outs! Maybe there must be something with my M-Audio Fast Track interface.
    In the mixer page of SessionDrummer1 there are 12 channels each with one output channel maybe I have to configure to differents channel in here.
     
    Thank you for trying to help me.
     
    Best regards

    Hi Bristol_Jonesey,
     
    The reason I am asking is because I need each drum instrument for EQ and mixing separately. If you have a kick, snare and hihat in the same audio track it would be very hard to cut some frequencies out without affecting other instruments in that track.
    So if I only have a kick in one audio track I can use a EQ lowpass filter to cut out high frequencies. I would do the opposite with my hihat audio track.
     
    Thank you for trying to help me.
     
    Best regards

    I would use multiple stereo tracks with Session Drummer. Multi-output track templates for Session Drummer are included with SONAR. If you prefer to insert the synth using the Soft Synth Options Dialog or add additional audio tracks to an existing instance, make sure to setup the audio track inputs and the audio output assignments using the drop downs at the bottom of each track in the Session Drummer Mixer view.

    This video may help https://youtu.be/9x-7sMawGaQ
    It uses an older version of SONAR but the routing of Session Drummer is the same.

    Understood, so in this situation you don't need to bounce your drums to audio.
     
    Just insert your drum synth as described above, enabling "All Synth Outputs"
     
    This will create separate audio tracks for each drum (so you can mix them individually) and a single midi track for your drum notes
