HELP: problems exporting 'drum-only' track when plugin/midi region is on the kick track

I'm new to Logic Pro. So this is most likely a simple solution or error on how I route or multi-track superior drummer (SD). My aim is to export my drums to a .wav file and further master in ozone. My 'band' would like to play over the drum tracks I've created for our original songs. But through many attempts, I can't figure out how to export ALL of the drums sounds when the midi region exists on the kick-specific track.


I have set up superior as "multi-output stereo" and created 7 tracks (kick, snare, high hat, toms, overheads, ambient, and a Bus for drums). Track 1/2's input is SD, BUT is it also the kick-specific track. Therefore the midi regions are created on the kick track and can only be heard whilst on track 1/2. When I try to "export selection as audio file", I only hear the kick drum in that file. I've tried solo'ing the drum Bus and highlighting the stereo output along with the master and other drum tracks then exporting, but I still only get the kick drum in the exported audio file.


What am I doing wrong?


Thanks in advance.

You'll want to "bounce" instead of exporting the region. If everything sounds good going to the stereo bus, try Cmd-B to bounce the project.

Yes, this should work. But what i ended up doing is temporarily deleting all other tracks (that weren't the drums) and then bouncing the entire project (not section/region). This still didn't give me a .wav file option, however... just up to 320kbs.


I've come from Ableton, where all i needed to do was solo the tracks I wanted, highlight a section of it, then export.
