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
