export once when finished; then usually bounce the same with different
export-options..
That's what I have been doing, too.
Sometimes there's a preliminary mixdown or rare
"exchange-exports"
(bounce all tracks and re-import as new project)
Please explain why and how.
- Do you work
with stereo and/or multi-channel?
stereo and 5.1 (in my case: 6 mono output tracks)
Do you create both stereo and 6 x mono from the same sessions?
How do you go about creating 6 mono output tracks?
Do you see an alternative to 6 mono output tracks?

It would be nice to have an export mode to glue
mastered [ardour]
sessions together for making seamless continuously playing CDs of
separate song-sessions! (select overlay/x-fade tracks? , graphical cue
edit ?, no more hand-tweaking .toc files!) - there's surely some
software to aid that purpose already that you can build on.
So basically it would start with chaining a bunch of mixdowns?
Don't you need a timeline and all the options given by Ardour's editor?
Also it would be great if the A/V offset could be
(optionally) written
in the file's header when exporting eg. WAV files. - I've made a similar
feat. request on ardour-dev and there's something already in the queue
for importing file's offsets - but that's not due before the
post-MIDI-merge.
There's a standard for A/V offsets in WAV headers?
What would be needed on the GUI side, format, number of digits ...?
Thank you. Thanks also to everyone who replied so far!
I hope there will be more :)
