Hello,
If you select stereo interleave then it will be one track. If you don't it will
be two mono files with L and R appended to the name appropriately.

Hi Slau,
Thanks for this informative answer. It was very helpful. One question. If
I create a stereo track, when I export the track out, will that track be
exported as one stereo track or as 2 mono tracks labeled left and right.
Thanks again Slau,
Brian

Hi Brian,
See my comments following your questions.

1. I'm going to need to import a tracking mix in to my session, and I
was wondering how the import dialog looked. When I tried using it before, it
was a little confusing so was wondering how that wrked.
Press Command-Shift-i to bring up the Import Audio dialog. This will be a
standard dialog and you should know how to navigate to the files you wish to
import. Press Return on each file you wish to import then move to the Done
button and click once. You'll probably get another dialog asking where to
import the files. The default location will be the Audio Files folder in your
session so just press Return again. Finally, you'll get a dialog asking
whether to import to a track or to the Regions list. The first radio button
(which has the letter t associated with it) should be selected and then hit
Return. A new track or tracks will come up with the files you selected.
2. I'm going to have tw audio tracks, which are going to be a left and
right string tracks coming out of my keyboard in t my interface. I'm
assuming that both tracks need to be selected in the track list table in
order to record on them at once. Can't remember the command to select a
track that is right beside the other tack that you have selected. I'm using
PT10.0.
I'm not sure why you don't just create one stereo track and enable it with
one record button. At any rate, a track doesn't necessarily need to be
selected in order to record to it. One does have the added advantage of being
able to use a couple of shortcuts for record-enabling the track but it's not
required. For what it's worth, the p key and the semicolon key with the
Control modifier will move the track selection to adjacent tracks. Using
Shift will extend the track selection. Make sure that track selection follows
edit selection under the Options menu for that to work correctly.
3. My last question has to do with exporting. I'm going to need t have
to export both of my string tracks out of pt. I know that I would use the
bounce to disc option, but what's the best way t just bounce out individual
tracks out of my session and not the entire mix which for me in this case
would also include my tracking mix.
You essentially have two options:
A. Mute all tracks except the ones you wish to bounce to disk and simply
bounce them or,
B. Export the files with Command-Shift-e. The thing about the second option
is that you'll need to consolidate the tracks' audio regions first. Make sure
the tracks you wish to consolidate are selected. Select the edit range from
the top of the session to the end of the tracks you wish to consolidate.
Press Option-Shift-3 on the numbers row to consolidate. With the tracks still
selected, use the Export Regions command and navigate to where you wish to
export.
Keep in mind that if you wish to rename the regions before exporting, use
Command-Shift-r to bring up the region name dialog. If more than one track is
selected, it will prompt in order of appearance. If it's a stereo file, it'll
append the necessary L and R to the individual files unless you export as
interleaved stereo.
