If you want to take your track into a professional studio or for some other reason put it somewhere other than live, but in its constituent parts, its much easier to do the following than render 1 track at a time.
Add about 5 audio tracks (how many you can do depends on your PC i think - i can do up to 8 that i've tried so far). Route the first 5 audio tracks to these tracks and arm them all. I recommend labelling the new tracks so the filename will be right.
Then start at the beginning and record. The five tracks you have routed will be recorded in realtime. The realtime element is critical if you are using VST's that have problems rendering out of realtime (i.e. RMIV and others) which cannot be recorded any other way.
Repeat the process until all of your tracks are long single wave files. Save a copy of your set and then save self contained.
If you take this single folder of <my set name> sounds to the studio, they can import it directly into a protools / logic / cubase or any other session no worries.

Quicker way of rendering for export to Protools/Logic etc

good tip. I started off using a similar method and then came up with another way to chop up long songs for looped sections. I was actually coming from the other direction than you, I received eight mono tracks of finished material from ADATs to be sliced up into sections. I beat-aligned these long tracks and then selected the looped sections that I wanted in the arrangement view. Using the Tab key, I dragged them onto the session view creating new instances of the same files that were ready to be looped. The benefit of using this method over the re-recording way you described is that all new clips are derived from a single file without having to take up more RAM by re-recording the clips. Hopefully this thread now provides suggestions of how to do this import/export in either direction successfully! Cheers.
