Assign audio files to specific tracks on session export
Ryan Nantell
Audio engineers prefer to have different kinds of tape / audio sources on dedicated tracks. On session export, Descript currently collapses all audio files into as few tracks as possible. This adds an annoying step to the workflow––once you open your session in Pro Tools, or Premiere, or Audition, you have to move each individual clip to the correct track. Would be much faster if, in the session export dialogue box, I could assign each audio file to my track of choice.

I’m having a different but related problem: every piece of synched audio ends up as a separate track upon export to PT/Audition...so I get e.g., Script track as track 53, and tracks 1-52 for the rest of the audio bits. Definitely makes Descript less useful for me.
Ben Gregson
Definitely agree. This is the biggest problem with using Descript in our workflow. It isn't practical as an audio editing software for podcasts, we still need to do that in Logic, but it's great for collaborative story composition and client review. However, if we can't get those audio files as we need them, it's kind of pointless.

Or better yet... assign it to a track when I add it to a composition.
