I've had this problem and found that it is usually because plugins or connected programs are still sending audio data. Ardour will keep exporting as long as anything in the pipeline is producing output. The problem went away for me when I turned on the "Stop plugins with transport" option. That way when the export hit's the end marker and the transport is consequentially stopped, the plugin's output is stopped as well. -Reuben On 9/12/05, Peder Hedlund <peder@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Bug (?) : > I have a 24 bit stereo track in Ardour connected to Jamin and returned > to another stero track.
