Prep your tracks to send for mixing

EXPORT

MULTITRACKS
Send individual tracks. Mono or stereo. Commit to any production moves that are reflected in your mix. "Raw" are usually too raw so go ahead and commit. Print virtual instruments as individual audio tracks. Include MIDI if needed
STEMS
Send combined groups. Stems include the group’s balance and processing. Print each group with its balance, automation, and bus processing. Ex: Drums_STEM.wav
FX_RETURNS
Send shared effects. Print each return as 100% wet stereo file. Ex: LeadVocal_Plate_FX.wav
REFS
Send current mix and master
