Locator Options
Manually Set
MEAP will not change your locators. They will remain as they were before you started your MEAP export. Sp you can set your locators anywhere.
Don't forget, any nose or tail you have set up will always be added to any of the locator settings.
All Project
The locators will be automatically set to encompass all of your project before export begins.
What will be exported when Locators are set to All Project
Parts on Tracks
The locators will be automatically set to encompass all of the parts on each track individually.
What will be exported when Locators are set to Parts on Tracks
Start to Last Part
The locators will be automatically set so that the left locator is always at the beginning of the first part in the project but the right locator is at the end of the last part on each track.
What will be exported when Locators are set to Start to Last Part
The locators will be automatically set so that the left locator is always at the beginning (zero) of the project in the project but the right locator is at the end of the last part on each track.
What will be exported when Locators are set to Zero to Last Part
Note that this option uses the "," key command to move the project cursor to position 0 (zero). If your cursor is already at zero the cursor will then be moved to the beginning of the project (which may not be zero).
The easiest way to avoid confusion here is to make sure your cursor is not at zero before starting the export.
The locators will be automatically set so that the left locator is always at the beginning of the first part on each track but the right locator is at the end of the last part of the project.
What will be exported when Locators are set to First Part to End
Separate Parts
Each part will be separately exported one at a time. MEAP does this by reading the left locator position of each part and then exporting it. After export MEAP moves the locators to the next part and exports it. When MEAP reaches the first part again it will move to the next track.
Note: If you have your audio application set to import parts back into the project, the screen will get full pretty quick, as each part exported will be imported back onto a new track. There is no way around this.
