MikeShapiro Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 Let's say your Arrange window has nothing but audio regions. Is it possible to bulk-export all regions (or all selected regions) into individual audio files? I know you can select each region in turn and select File->Export->Export Region as Audio File, but I was hoping there was a way to do them all at once. Thanks in advance!

MikeShapiro Posted June 30, 2007 Author Share Posted June 30, 2007 I am thinking they are aready there. Look in your AUDIO WINDOW The audio window contains many more regions than are present in the Arrange window, including multiple regions from the same file. Thanks for the response, though - I'm always up for some good snark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shivermetimbers Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 The audio window contains all the audio you recorded. The Regions are the audio you are using. The unused files can be deleted. Be careful though. You can also rename every audio file too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qtruck Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 How about File -> Export -> All Tracks as Audio Files? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Wikman Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 I Select "Used" or "Unused" from the Audio Window, then simply save "Save Regions"... from the audio Window also. Batch. That should do it for you. I'd like to find out though how to have my saved files include my short fades? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rjackson87 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Having just tried to do this, Eric's answer of "Save Regions..." (currently named "Save Region(s) as..." in Logic Pro X 10.1) works perfectly. I'm only posting this as it's nice to know that solutions in 2007 still hold true in 2015! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Lonsdale Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Hi all. I am trying to do the same thing - edit and then export multiple drum hits from a recording session. I have created lots of regions on the arrange page (see attached grab) and then want to export the lot with the fades included. There doesn't seem to be a way to do this. 'Convert regions' doesn't include the fade, neither does exporting from the Bin - the only way seems to be to right-click on each one in turn and select 'Export as audio file' which is pretty time consuming and dull. What we could do with is a 'bounce/export all regions as audio files' . I can't be the only one who harvests drums hits from a recording session on a regular basis!

Rjackson87 Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Hi Joel, One work around would be to o 'Bounce in place' each full track, one at a time - this makes one new audio file where the fade-outs are taken into account o Split this new BIP region into the parts you want to use o Select the regions you want the files of o Go to Browsers>Project (on the right hand of the Tracks window), and you should see the regions of the new BIP file highlighted. > Right (/control) click the highlighted regions and select "Save Region(s) As..." and the rest should be good. This leaves you with new files made of those highlighted sub-regions of the BIP, which will have the fade-outs applied as required. I've made a quick video here to show what I'm talking about - https://youtu.be/CGUi8ZSASxM (I also delete the new BIP region at the end, though that's not necessary!). Let me know if that's of any use at all, Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Lonsdale Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 These all look good, but in the case of having already done the editing work, it would be soul destroying to then BIP and then have to cut them up again! Still looking for that illusive "export all as audio files" function. Doesn't everyone who records drummers have to do this at some point if they want hits for each session?

stardustmedia Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Easy as pie. Just select all audio regions, then right-click > convert > convert to new audio file. Choose folder to your taste. Lotsa single audio files. But it doesn't take over fades A little drag down: It will replace the regions with the new audio files. The new audio files will be added to the bin. But if you don't save the session, you just can restore it easily. PS: If the regions are labeled the same, Logic numbers them automatically.

Joe Lonsdale Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Easy as pie but does not include fades! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stardustmedia Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Yeah, there should be a feature asking for the fades, with or without, when exporting to new audio files. Shouldn't a big thing, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Lonsdale Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 It could also ask whether to include plugins, fader volume etc and give the usual assortment of file format options. It seems to me to be a macro that's almost there already, but frustratingly not quite. I normally have to manually 'Export as new audio file' a hundred or so audio files Street a drum tracking session. Not the end of the world, but boring as hell.

But of course it will add power, if more people asking for the same feature. At least that's what I believe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rjackson87 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 There's a solution to the "soul destroying to then BIP and then have to cut them up again" problem that I've just realised - if you BIP each track, then do a strip silence (ctrl + x) on each of them then, as long as you've set the settings right there, that should cut up *most* of the hits for you - you might have to do a few individual snips on some of the faster hits, but that should do a lot of the work for you. Of course it'd be much easier if the aforementioned 'convert to new audio file with fades etc.' option was there, so good plan to request the feature!

stardustmedia Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 If it's just the fades you need, and if they are all the same, you can use a batch converter like Sample Manager to add the fades. That's what I use and it can do a lot more stuff, even add plugins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Lonsdale Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 That's true, except if you're editing drum samples, you wont want them all to start at transient - the room mics may need several milliseconds of silence at the start to remain in true synchronisation with the direct mics. Have a look at the screengrab from my first post above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rjackson87 Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Ah fair enough - strip silence does still allow you to choose the pre-attack time (i.e. it'd cut the region before the transient), though I can appreciate that may not be completely consistent, so you'd still need to go over the regions again to check everything was as you'd like it. Batch processing in something like Sample Manager may be a good shout for you if you're only looking to add the fades to the ends of the files, though I don't know too much about that!

noisyneil Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 For anyone still wondering if there's a way to quickly re-do your edits after rendering the fades... Use the ol' negative space trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
