Merge/Combine objects

Mausic Maker ver. 31.0.4.35 In the arranger in same track I'd like to Merge/Combine objects (very short objects of same sound) I checked the documentation and did not notice help for this, is this even possible?

@David-Barselow I got curious and went looking, and found this in the Help for the Edit menu (Search on the word "combine" shows nothing):

Combine audio...

This function can combine the project or segments of the project into a single audio/video object. Please read more on this in the section Combine audio

Keyboard shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+G

I couldn't find any Help section called "Combine Audio". But, it does seem to work -- I dropped some loops into a track, selected them all, did the Combine action, and was taken to a Save window, where you save the piece as a [desired filename].HDP file.

This is all new to me (beyond my experience), so I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for?

@gjonny, @David-Barselow

. . . . I couldn't find any Help section called "Combine Audio" . . .

It is Audio mixdown (Mix Audio in Help and p56 in the manual) and is under Edit, Track.

@johnebaker -- thanks for the info. And thanks to @David-Barselow for asking about this function -- I learned something new, and it looks like it could be very useful.

I was referring to the (objects) loops in the arranger on their respective track, is this method in the mixdown options offered?

Hi David

See the example video clip of how to mix down objects on a track - if you have multiple tracks occupied and only want to mixdown a single track then Solo it as seen in the clip below otherwise all tracks will be mixed down into one.

Awesome and thank you John, I am hoping that I can do this with just selected stems/loops/objects on a track if not I guess I'll have to do a mixdown with my desired settings and then reinsert back into track?

You can to that only with Samplitude Pro X or Samplitude Music Studio. Both have a freeze feature which will render your objects or tracks with all edits and effects into a new audio file. You can also unfreeze this file to get your audio object or tracks back.

Samplitude Pro X has also additional export features which let's you batch export objects into separate files.
