I've been using Pro Tools 6.1 for about 6 months now. Up until recently, I used to be able to hi-lite a given set of tracks within along the same time line frame and bounce them to whatever stereo format I chose, seperately from everything else in the Pro Tools file I was working in. For some reason, when I try to do this now, Pro Tools automatically begins to bounce all the tracks in the file starting from the begining of all tracks, instead of the ones I just hi-lited. Had anyone seen this or know what settings regulate the bounce functions?

Also, I read in the manual that you can export individual tracks using the export -> audio regions as audio option, although I haven't been able to nail down where to find that option for 'audio regions'.

I appreciate any and all help!

thanks,

Victor

ok, i figured out that if i hilite the time frame space in the timeline, vs actually hiliting each track within that timeline that i'd like to include, it bounces those individual tracks fine. I now only have to mute the tracks i'd like to exclude. But i definitely recall not having to go about it this way before as i described. seems like a strange thing.

thanks

Looks like you figured it out.. Mute the tracks you do not want to bounce. Regarding the export individual tracks using the export -> audio regions as audio option. That is found in the far right listing of tracks in the session. there is a pull down menu. The advantage of exporting that way is it is done very quickly, (vs. real time). But it only exports the file, not any fades, mutes or effects you may be using via any aux sends..
