Hello all,
OK, I recorded a mix (70 mins long, .wav format) to my laptop and everything went as planned. I then decided to import the mix into Cubase to do a bit of editing etc. which again, went fine. I saved the edited mix as a normal cubase project file.
I finished the final touches today and then decided to export the mix as a wav file ready for burning to a cd. However, when I attempted to do this, I kept getting the message 'An error occurred during the export!' Why am I getting this message? I tried every possible way e.g. export as audio mixdown, 16bit, 44khz, stereo or mono, interleaved/split etc. but nothing works. Exporting as .wma, .mp3 or any other file format doesnt work either - I keep getting the same message. What do I need to do to get my Cubase project exported as a wav file?
Please, PLEASE, any help with this would be great.
All the best
Hudson
PS: Cubase version: 2.2.0 build 35 running on XP. If you need any other information, just let me know.
Help - Cubase won't let me export a project as a wav!

Please tell me you have checked that you set the left and right locators properly?(click on file then key command control + p)

check the positions of your locators, the left one should be on the left and .. well you .. guess where the right one should be.
If that doesn't help, search the cubase.net forums for the error message.

also select the proper audio output(eg stereo1,stereo2) to export mixdown in the export window. perhaps you are doing it right.
Tools are tools, they don't produce anything...

Another thought is the maximum project time - I would have thought that would have been over-ridden with locators, but I'm not completely sure. When you set up a project, there's a window somewhere to set project length (can't remember where...). Same thing that buggers up freezing if you don't reduce the project length.

The other thing is...the only style I know that would think of having a 70-minute-long song is prog rock. Most modern computers are preprogrammed to reject prog rock on principle. Be nice to it and play some proper music to it...it might like it

Cheers guys thanks for all the help. The problem was identified above - the maximum project time. What I did to sort it was just import the original mix into Audacity, trimmed a few beats here and there, then put it back into Cubase, re-done the editing, and then it exported as a WAV file fine!
Glad thats sorted...
