Ardour 3 mix down

Post by peter »

People asked me how to mix down tracks directly into ardour 3.
I thought that I would share it here.
I read solutions about connecting and disconnecting tracks or exporting the tracks every time.
It can be done more easily like this :
Add a stereo track name it "RECORD"
Add an external send to the master track pointing to the RECORD track
Disconnect the RECORD track output from the master track, and reconnect it to a hardware output.
This way you always record what you send to the master, your workflow stays the same. :D
Just hit record on the RECORD track for recording and mute it when not recording.
Press solo on RECORD to hear only the recording.
Trying is what I do best.
