(SOLVED) Export Loop Region Only?
I find myself missing a simple function that I'm used to from some video editing software. You create your "Loop Region", no big deal there, but then when you go to export, you have the option to "JUST export the loop region" as an MP3 or WAV or whatever...
Is that possible in Sonar X3? I know you can chop stuff up into clips, and then highlight a clip, and export that, OR you can export the entire song (or print it to a new track) and then cut & crop that down to the region you want, etc... but that completely misses the point.
Sometimes I want to get a quick 10 second section of a song, that might have 40-50 tracks on it or something. (So I don't want to "cut all of the tracks" into pieces, and then highlight the 50 segments.) It would be easier if I could just, up in the timeline, where you select your loop region, just do THAT, and then export ALL of the tracks, but ONLY the loop region.
Is this possible, and I'm just missing a checkbox somewhere? Or is this just not something that has been implemented, because nobody else has a use for it?
It wouldn't NORMALLY be a big deal, but when you have 50 tracks, including multiple VSTi, and tons of stuff in the FX bins, and all kinds of things like that, doing a full export of your song to WAV every time you make a few changes, can be pretty time consuming, especially if the only part you want to test, is a 10 second (or so) sample of the song.
Any suggestions?
