Thanks Noble, what do you mean by "splitting the mixer mixer tracks?" Do you export the waves "dry" or with effects and then reimport? This is good stuff b/c this is at the essence of what I'm trying to better understand. b/c sometimes i've exported the waves with no effects into another sequencer (e.g., SONAR), but what your saying is that you import them back into FL and then assign each wave sample to a mxer track and then mix?
When that box pops up after you save the file (the rendering box), there is an option to split the tracks.
It splits what ever is assigned to that mixer insert from the master into its own file.
I export dry, adding effects are done at the mixing stage.
Let me break down what I do.
1. I compose the beat and sequence the patterns.
2. I give every individual sound its own mixer track, the pianos on its own track, hi-hats, kick whatever.
3. I export it as a WAV and chose "split mixer tracks" in the rendering options. That leaves me with all the individual sounds tracked out.
4. I re import the tracks and assign them to individual mixer tracks again and mix.
Hopefully you get what I'm saying. If not I can go into further detail
