How to split a single track into multiple files

Hello, I've seen this question posted before but I've yet to find a good clear answer to the problem. Maybe I just missed it, because I do believe I figured this out once some time ago but now I can't find the solution. It comes up a lot. Say you have a long single stereo track of a live performance and you want to break it up into individual songs. You can do so with markers. Maybe you added some compression or EQ to that long track of multiple songs. It's all one live recording so the effects you added work for each song. How do you most simply then render that down to multiple .wav files? So that each song at each marker becomes its own separate wav file. Thank you to anyone who has a clean simple approach.

Hello Rubwrongways and welcome to these forums. You'll find many helpful people here and a lot of useful information. It all depends. You might: -- Split the single long clip at the desired points, -- Glue each clip to "re-render" it, -- Duplicate the track several times, -- Remove all but one of the clips from each track. That way you end up with each song on its own track with its own instances of the FX, for individual tweaking. Or, -- Split the single long clip at the desired points, -- Glue each clip to "re-render" it, -- drag each clip to a new track, -- route that track back to the original track. That way you end up with each song on its own track, routed to a common FX track, for tweaking.

Thank you. 

Thanks Jeffsounds, I've attached a picture here, if that helps. I want to render this thing one time and have it create a number files. I'd like each section (song) to become a .wav file automatically. I know I can just take each song separately and render it on its own but it seems that there is a way to hit the render button once and have the computer split all those songs up at their markers and create new individual .wav files for each. I'm pretty sure I've done it before. But it was a long time ago.

All of the clicking that I talked about has to happen up above to timeline/ruler whatever, in that area where the markers are. Not on the media items themselves. Once you find the right-click menus,maybe make a note of the keyboard shortcut.

Thank you, everyone. I'll try the region approach. I will make sure to report back here so that anyone else seeking a similar solution will see it.

Where' Viente? Sounds like an easy ReaScript that would be faster than the native method. 1. Split that clip at every marker. 2. Parse the number of items (splits) as "i" 3. Run a loop... For each i, select it and bounce it to a new track with fx, stereo mute original That would result in Darkstar's stair stepped renders.

ashcat_it - your region solution worked perfectly thank you. Lawrence, what you wrote makes sense but I'm afraid it is just a bit beyond me computer-wise. Thanks, everyone!
