Grouped vs Individual prints
Grouped print
Forte combines all selected tracks into a single audio file.
Example: selecting four drum tracks for a grouped print produces one file, a combined mix of all those tracks.
Use when:
- Delivering composite stems for mastering
- Delivering to sync and music supervision
- Broadcast deliveries requiring stem files
- The client wants a simplified package
Individual print
Forte generates a separate audio file for each selected track.
Example: selecting four drum tracks for individual prints produces four separate files, one per track.
Use when:
- Delivering full multitrack packages for remixing
- Archiving a session for future recall
- Sending to a co-producer who needs track-level control
- Video game audio deliveries requiring separate assets
