Bounce stems for only used sounds

chintwo · 2022-11-28T09:17:55+00:00

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Every time I export individual stems out from Maschine, I end up with stems of every single sound from every group used (meaning even unused sounds ). This is an issue for me since I have lots of drum groups saved and opened but I don’t necessarily use every single sound on the group. I want only pads, samples, n drums that were triggered throughout the song to be exported. I usually bounce these into pro tools where I end up with massive sessions filled with empty tracks. Any way to address this issue?

Hi,

you can just deactivate the tracks you wouldn't export by clicking on the given track with the left mouse button.

In this case I deactivated the third track in the vocals group for example:

Yes, but my experience is too if you use export sounds for the complete project, there is no way to export only the used sounds. Even if you have that sounds deactivated, you get all the empty stems for those deactivated sounds. If you import afterwards e.g. to Ableton you have to manually delete the empty sound stems. I did not find an Ableton function either to get rid of empty tracks…

This screenshot illustrates it. From Earth Kit are all sounds selected although I deactivated all but two. I can not find an option to disable empty sounds stems automatically either.

If you "reset" the unused sounds from the kit, they will not get exported. This works somehow but an automatic detection of empty tracks would be more nice IMO.
