I am trying to create a mixdown of a mix I got in Cubase SX.
I am trying the export / mixdown function.
Is this the correct way?\
I selected .wav , stereo out, stereo interleaved.
I set the left and right locators to encompass the entire song.
The resulting file is nothing but silence, but is 44+ mb in size.
What am I doing wrong?
Any ideas?
Thanks,
B

Make sure that you set the in / out points for the mix first, go to export,
select wav, stereo interleaved, either real-time or not and click OK.
All should be good, but if you're trying to see it in Paris, you won't be
able to, because of the header info...

Excuse my ignorance, but how do you access the In / Out points of the mix?
Thanks,
B

OK,
I use Nuendo, but I'm assuming here that they work pretty much the same.
In the edit window, there is a longditudinal window with bars/beats or time
markers on top of that window.
When the mouse is on that window, (black?), the cursor changes to a
pen...left click and drag the pen to the length of the track you want to
mix...making sure the colour becomes blue, from left to right.
If it's red you need to move the pen the other way.
Very convoluted explanation, but experiment in that area and you'll see what
I mean

Ah...Ok this souns like the left and right locators that I mentioned before.
I have the song segment within the left and right boudaries, but I did notice
that when I put it to the far left it turns into a "pen". I will try experimenting
here.
Thanks so much for your input.

Additional shortcuts - alt click in the time ruler to set the left range
border, ctrl-click to set the right. Quickest way to set it without finding
the existing borders and dragging.
If you have the ranges set, you should be getting a mixdown of audio in that
range. Be sure to check what outputs you are mixing down in the mixdown
dialogue window (don't assume SX sets this correctly, or keeps the setting).
You might be mixing down a silent buss inadvertently.

Thanks Dedric
I knew you'd pop in and save my convoluted explanation.

you said "Be sure to check what outputs you are mixing down in the mixdown
dialogue window."
Where is this dialogue window?
I am certain the Left and Right locators are set properly.
I selected the output bus "Stereo" in the export window.
Thanks,
B

That's the one. It will be named whatever you named your output busses in
SX (or a default name - "Stereo" here). As long as the master buss your mix
is playing back through is the same one, "Stereo", it should work.

Dedric
