Q: Export all tracks as audio files in LPX has suddenly ceased to function correctly

I have been working on a project for the past three months, which requires me to work from home ,then export all my tracks as audio files and take them into another studio. This is because my collaborator's DAW of choice is now Nuendo. So far, this has proved to be a very successful approach to our workflow, until today. As an example , I have a cue with 96 tracks. When I came to use export all tracks as audio files, the usual window came up, defaulting the destination to the bounces folder in the Logic song. However, this time, instead of the expected and correct number of tracks to be saved ( 96 ) , the total was 25 !

 

I tried this with a few other recent Logic songs and the same thing happened. None of us can figure it out. I had to manually, and individually, bounce each track separately, which was very time-consuming. A clue, though….. I tried exporting the tracks one at a time. So, the first one was, say, piccolo rips. It did that fine . The second track was Alto flute runs, but when I came to export, Logic seemed to think it was still the piccolo rips! This implies that the reason why I'm experiencing reduced export files is because Logic is thinking that many of the tracks are actually duplicates, so it's stopping them from being exported. That's the only explanation I have. However, I don't have the answer to the reason for this. I'm running the latest version of Logic.

 

Has anyone clue as to why this has suddenly started to happen and how it can be fixed please? I'm thinking I might just trash the Logic app and reinstall.

Many thanks for any help.

    OK, well, the preference thing didn't work, unfortunately. Honestly , my gut instinct is to trash and reinstall Logic. No harm can some of it, as song as I restore my precious icons !

    I don't want to rub up the Logic community the wrong way, but my collaborator was a long-term Logic user, but finally went over to Nuendo. I have to say, in terms of stability and the incredible power of its real time audio engine, it's superior. I don't think the MIDI / virtual instrument side is so hot though, which is where 99% of my work resides. There  is one MIDI thing that Nuendo does that Logic doesn't, so…...

     

    This is chiefly irrelevant , and for another thread, but my two-penneth.

     

     

     

    No problem here, I'm a registered Cubase user but use Logic for my own writing and just for fun. The university here (PBS/NPR) uses Nuendo workstations (both PC & Mac) and Cubase projects are compatible, same basic audio engine, I think Cubase has a wider variety of virtual instruments.. Steinberg still sells quite a few VI so it's not in their best interest to include their best stuff where as Apple can afford to throw in the kitchen sink and sell it for $200.. Apple is after all, a hardware company. OSX/IOS + apps are there only to support the hardware.

     

    Sorry to hear preferences didn't help.

    I thought you good gentlemen might wish to know, I properly deleted  Logic Pro X and reinstalled, but the problem remains. Clearly, my guts are not as reliable as they used to be ! I

     

    Well, it remains that I can still render the individual tracks, but it is a serious inconvenience, until I fix this. I cannot understand how this can suddenly spring out of nowhere. Baffling.

     

    Many thanks, once again. I'll keep looking into it.
