My goal is to create a file with a unique name to be exported as an audio file from SD3. This is my process:
Throughout this process the unique name I gave the file is not retained in the Song Track or in the output audio file. This makes it more difficult to manage this unique file. Plus, then when I import the audio file into the DAW, I need to change the file name because “Out_1+2.wave” is not very descriptive for me.
Is there a way to retain a unique created file name in the Song Track and exported audio file? If so, please let me know what you would suggest.
Thanks!

Why bounce in SD3? Why not just create a bunch of audio tracks in your daw and record the SD3 audio output there? That way you can name the tracks anything you want in your daw.
I’m confused. To my knowledge, there are two ways of bringing an SD3 file into a DAW. One is by dragging a midi file into a midi track. The other is by dragging an audio file into an audio track.
In the drumjack52 quote above it says, “Why not just create a bunch of audio tracks in your daw and record the SD3 audio output there?”
This is suggesting that there is another option which I don’t understand. How would you create a bunch of audio tracks in your daw and record the SD3 audio output there?
Please explain. Thanks!

It’s very simple. Set SD3 to use multi outputs in the mixer. Create a number of audio tracks in your daw – as many as output streams you have from SD3. Assign the input field of each of those audio tracks in your daw to the appropriate mixer track from Sd3. Your question suggests that you’re a newcomer to audio recording and a daw. That’s not a bad thing – it’s just that you have a lot to learn. What I’m describing is basic audio recording and it doesn’t matter the source and the destination. Actually it even gets more basic than that – think about bringing an external source into a mixer in a live show. In this case the external source is SD3 and the mixer is your daw. What daw are you using?
Again you’d be better off doing your MIDI work in your daw and have that feed MIDI into SD3. I do that all the time.

I agree 100,000% not to mention as I have earlier, any tempo and or signature changes within your project. If you spent the money for SD3, I hope that you bought a good daw. Cubase is my favourite and yes it is expensive, but I get the option of having multiple takes on any kind of track. If you have a session recorded and someone doesn’t like the lead vocal or maybe the harmonizing part, all you have to do is creat a new version of the track and do a re-record. If later they change their mind, you have the original one already recorded, and all you have to do on the track is change to the version that they like and then print your stems. By default, your different versions are labelled as V1, V2, V3, etc. you can even go in and rename those V items as a date and time that the vocal was recorded.
if money was involved in the re-record, you can get every one to sign a piece of paper that they are happy with the documented versions.

I checked out further the option of just recording the audio directly from SD3 into my DAW – thereby avoiding bouncing in SD3. What an excellent suggestion. I’ve tried it and it seems like the easiest solution. I don’t know why I didn’t think of it.
I had a feeling this forum would help to shed light on what I should do and it’s true – that’s what happened.
Thanks to everyone for your tips!
