Export Multiple Help please

Audacity 3 Help Forum Windows

Hi All - Let me first ask if it’s possible to export multiple audio clips using region labels when you have multiple audio tracks/label tracks?

Let me see if I can explain what’s going on.
I have multiple tracks in an Audacity project and have created regions for each audio clip. When you create a region in an audio track, it creates a label track. I’ve named all my regions using the labels. When you have multiple tracks with labels and now multiple label tracks, I don’t know how Audacity knows which label track goes with its audio track it was created from.

Regardless, when using the File → Export Multiple command, the only clips extracted are from one track and I need all clips from all tracks that are labeled. I’ve tried selecting all tracks, muting, solo, and nothing seems to be working.

I’m using the latest version of Audacity 2.1.0 on a Windows 7 computer.

I hope I’ve supplied enough information for someone to help me with a solution. If not please let me know.

Thanks!

The instructions seem to suggest you can do that.

Did you try Control-Clicking just above MUTE so all the tracks are selected and then File > Export Multiple?

If you want to mix the multiple audio tracks, yes.

If you want each region for each track as a separate file, no Audacity cannot do that yet as one action.

If that is what you want, then mute all but the first track and Export Multiple, which will export as per the labels for that first track only.

Then mute all but the second track, and so on.
