FL Studio 12 Exporting Almost Empty Tracks

[Drago Zetić]

Today I have some new beats ready to save as mp3 tracks for uploading, but unlike before, FL exports almost nothing. The length is correct, but the only audible portion is 24 ms long, while the rest is basically silence with an extreme DC offset. Here's a screenshot of the waveform at the beginning - the right side stays the same throughout the whole track:

I have no idea on how to fix this. I've tried closing anything that could use audio hardware and it still exported this garbage.

I don't know FL much anymore but maybe your track is not selected when you export?

In that case, I'd get a completely empty track and wouldn't hear anything upon playback inside FL.
It doesn't make sense because I didn't change anything in the settings in a while and my other stuff exported without problems.

Is there a way to right-click the track and export?

 

[Drago Zetić]

The only way is to click on the main dropdown menu, select "Export..." and choose a codec/container combination. I tried PCM (.wav) and .mp3, but both gave me the same results. There's also a bunch of options for oversampling and what not. Here's how it really looks.

I don't have a clue then, maybe someone on here that's using FL Studio can help.

@Fade You can close this thread now, I've found a solution. In the master channel, I put Edison and let it record the whole track. I then exported the .wav file from that plugin onto my hard drive and it works now.

why do you have all the output formats checked?

so this is how I export my mp3's. never had any issues

That's an example screenshot I stole from an official help page. I never export .ogg and .midi files.

 

[oninkaf]

oh, my bad
I dunno I never had any issues. Is that a problem only on your current project or in general?

 

[Drago Zetić]

It only affected one project, but I found a way and already posted it. Don't know why the thread hasn't been closed yet.
