i tried to do an export without freezing however the export/audio was "greyed" out and not able to click on it. to make sure you understand what I am doing: I am sending the song out to get mixed, the guy mixes in pro tools so I have to send individual tracks. so I have to get each drum to its own channel and exported out as audio. So in the end I had 42 audio tracks which I sent. because I was unable to export audio from the tracks I created which were mapped to bfd2, i froze the drums, this created an audio clip for each drum ie: kick drum clip, snare clip, tom clip etc. I then exported all of thos clips as individual wave files, kick.wav, snare.wav, tom1.wave, etc. it seemed to work, however I am not sure if this is the only way or the best way to do this.
