How to record as audio song from Muse?

[saturnin51]

Hi,

Perhaps the question was already asked. I want to obtain a wav or a mp3 of the song I record with Muse, Midi and audio. And possibly directly with my smartphone.

MusE:

Select the master audio track (with the left- and right markers bounding your song), go to menu Audio>Render downmix to a file. This gives a wav. You can use any converter, like lame, to make an mp3 out of it. I always load the rendered song into a wave editor first to trim and normalize it, then export it as an mp3 and wav.

You can also just click the arrow icon on the main output to render your song in wave audio file.

OK thanks. But only the audio tracks are recorded, not the MIDI tracks. I would want to record all the sounds not only the audio.

Where does the midi data go to? External software? Hardware? Internal plugins? Have you made certain that all audio is routed to a single master audio track?

All the tracks, MIDI and audio, go to track output.

Here's some documentation for you to read, to get a grip on at least some of the basics:

I am certainly not a pro of Muse but I am not also a newbie. I used Cubase Audio on a Falcon and Muse for several years.
Before to write my question, I search a way to obtain the result and I didn't find: a file wav with all the tracks into, MIDI and audio.

But midi is not audio, so how can you expect to have midi data in a wave file? That's why I ask what audio device the midi tracks are connected to: a plugin, external software, or hardware?

What is recorded with a mixdown is the audio that passes through the output track.

Midi however does not actually produce audio by itself, instead it is sent to a synth. The synth in turn produces audio.
It then comes down to which type of synth you are using?

1. Plugin: If the synth is a plugin/softsynth that you started from inside MusE the synths audio very likely passes through the output track and should be recorded with a mixdown.
2. Standalone softsynth: Some synths, especially older softsynths, are standalone. They can receive midi from MusE but extra steps must be taken to record their audio during a mixdown.
3. External synths: E.g. a hardware synth. For apparent reasons their audio must be connected back into the computer and routed into MusE much the same as 2. to be able to mixdown.

So, the question is what type of synths you are using?
I think it is very likely that you are using a plugin from within MusE? In which case it should work...

Thinking about it I realize that MusE allows for creating multiple output tracks. If you have more than one output, this is likely unnecessary and may be the reason it is not working?

It is late in France now. So I am tired ! Obviously that the audio output of the midi tracks is on the expander and then on the mixer and so can't out with the audio. Stupid boy !
Mille excuses !
