I keep trying to export multiple files from Audacity using the "Export multiple..." function and choosing to split the files based on the labels I created. Yet for some reason, the files keep splitting at the beginning of a second track for a sound effect I imported, instead of where the labels begin/end. No matter what I do, I cannot seem to change this, so I just end up deleting the sound effect(s) track just to export into separate tracks. I can't figure it out and it's driving me nuts.

Re: Can't export into multiple tracks
Export multiple when there are labels AND multiple tracks is not currently working properly.
To work around the issue until it is fixed:
1) Ctrl+A (select All)
2) Tracks menu > Mix and Render (mixes down the selected tracks into a single track)
3) Export Multiple, based on labels.
4) (optional) Use Ctrl+Z to undo back to separate tracks.
Let us know if that works for you.

Ah, I'm glad it wasn't me, at least. I just finished trying your workaround, and it worked great! Thank you for the quick reply!
