Extracting a few bars? Simplest way?

I have a complete song finished now I'm getting the lyrics together.

What I'd like to do is take only one verse and one chorus out of the song into a wav or sound file

I don't want the entire song just 8 bars of verse and 8 bars of chorus. As this is all I need to work with the lyrics.

What is the easiest way to do this? I appreciate all comments. Thank you.

Logic Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8)

Safe the project under a new name!

Assuming you have a constant tempo, make regions from the 8 bars verse and chorus. Now delete everything around and in-between. Arrange the regions to taste.

Thats the quick way.

Alternatively you can copy/paste the regions into a new project. You can save yourself some work, by taking the original project, save under a new name, remove (not delete) all arrange content. Now paste your 8 bars of verse and chorus.

Thats just two of a few dozen ways to do this………..


Have a nice day!
