For my job I'm kind of a mechanical engineer, and I'm always surprised (or shockedkozikowski wrote:People put one Label between two songs on a single timeline and are shocked when they only get one export. You need to put a Beginning Clip Marker at the [/u]Beginning[/u] of each clip you want exported. So the above example calls for a Label at 00:00 and then another one between the two songs. That will give you two exported songs.

) to see how end-users abuse and torture your design.I guess the same applies to software.... what I usually do: I record a live-performance, and try to put as many info in the file "on the fly" as this saves me a lot of time afterwards in searching and marking songs. I'm all alone behind the soundboard, so I mix the band in all aspects: I have to keep eye contact with the musicians, mix volumes, play with effects and tone settings, watch the audience.... oh and by the way I also want to make a recording. So that has to go as easy as possible. I can't permit getting distracted by the computer.
This is why I changed some shortcuts. In this example: M is much easier than Ctrl-M.
Afterwards I edit the labels I set to their respective song names, save the original and export the whole bunch as separate MP3 files. To get the first song also I use the "export audio before first label" option, and give it the name of the first song (instead of the project name by default). By doing this I am not "shocked" (I quote) because I get the first track as well.
Are YOU shocked now?
