Protools 7 Mac Tiger, Dividing tracks at bouncing Options

[VOXRAMES]

In a PT session, at the lower right of the edit window you must see two little arrows like this «,
click on it and the Regions menu' will open, then if you select a sample region in a track, it will appear highlighted in the Regions menu', here you can select Export Regions as Files;
if you cannot do this, i suspect that something wrong is in your program;

which PT version are you using? and which Tiger version you have in your Mac?
what audio interface do you use with PT? are you using a mixer connected to this interface?

a probable cause of L/R channels crosstalking could be a bad cable connected from the
output of your Digidesign audio interface to your speakers system or mixer;
in case, you should check trying with another brand new stereo cable;
hope this helps.

Thanks a lot Zeze. I finally found the Regions menue and it works. But I select track 1 in English and track 2 in Spanish and then. Regions, Export Regions as Files and when it does, I only hear the spanish.I really don´t understand that because I have only used Pro Tools bouncing to disk.

I am using PT LE 7. Tiger 10.4.2
M Box (the blue and white one that stands vertical) I use no mixer.
The M Box is connected only throuh one USB to the I Mac G5

Do you think it could be that connection? Because i have never been able to fully separate the tracks, even with my older version PT 6.4

i tried this in my PT 7.1 LE/MBox2/G5/Tiger 10.4.6 setup, and it worked fine:

in a new session i create two mono tracks, i pan trk1 hard left and trk2 hard right,
i put a mono file1 to trk1 and a mono file2 to trk2, i select both the tracks and the regions,
then in Regions menu' i choose Export Regions as Files, in the window that appears i have

File Type: SD II
Format: Stereo
Bit Depth: 16
Sample Rate: 44100

by checking Prompting for each Duplicate i can name the new file and choose the export destination,
and click Save;
next i open Peak, load the saved stereo file, and it plays as expected, that is, i hear the file1 in
channel left perfectly isolated, and file2 on channel right with no leakage at all;

if you do this and still you have the same problem, then i suggest you to check the audio cable
that connects the Mbox outputs to your speaker system, maybe it could be damaged,
creating the crosstalking effect.
hope this helps.

Ok I did the same thing up to Prompting for each duplicate. PT allows me to choose the destination folder. But then I have nowhere to click Save. after chosing the destination I can only click Export. And when it export finishes I get 2 files: one for English and one for French. Is it maybe because I have PT 7 and you PT7.1?

Also, I don´t know what you mean by opening PEAK

What kind of file is SDII? I have only worked with AIFF files. Could I give an SDII file to a DVD authoring technician?
Thanks Zeze all of this is helping me a lot. As you can see I am a real beginner in PT. But I am having fun learning.

i think you got two files because in the Export Selected window you chose (Multiple) Mono instead of Stereo;
so, dont forget to select the Stereo option before exporting it;
no, i dont think PT 7 is much different from 7.1;

Also, I don´t know what you mean by opening PEAK

PEAK is a sample editing software, i used this to listen to the result file;

SDII is the Digidesign audio sample format; you can also choose AIFF or WAV, ask your authoring technician which one he prefers.
