Mono stem?
Hi, I am looking for a way to export non-normalized tracks - using the export stems, seems to work for that, but it only seems to export stereo… Am I doing something wrong? Help! I’m doing an audiobook and need a mono track. thanks!

Re: Mono stem?
There are a few things that will force a track to be stereo on export. Any stereo regions on a track will force it to be stereo. Also any panning, unless the pan control is dead center (tap the top triangle button on the panning control to perfectly center the control). AUv3 effects on the track will also cause the track to convert to stereo.
Unfortunately there isn't a way currently to disable normalization on export. The thinking was that, since the track is rendered afresh to combine all the regions, we may as well fix the volume at the same time, as any accuracy lost in the volume transform is dwarfed by the overall accuracy of the ADC itself. Most of those lower bits are random, it's overkill in terms of accuracy. However, I see now that this might be a bit overzealous and the raw recordings could be useful for other process down the line. I'll add a feature request for this for the upcoming version.
