Exporting the beat.

Yo i just made a beat with my MPC and my midikeyboard using Reason as soundmodule.
What i have been trying to do is exporting the track from the MPC to my PC.
The only problem is when finished exporting and entering the harddisk, is that the file only contains the beat and not the sounds from Reason....Can anyone help me?

This is what i did:
First i went to Song mode.
Record Mode
Pressed (Window) So the MIxdown mode will show up

From there i did this:
Destination: Save as File
Filname: Beat1
Format 24-bit WAV
Sequence tracks: YES
Record Audio: YES
Effects: YES
Mixer Automation: YES
Input thru: NO

Am i doing anything wrong?

An option would be to have the output of your PC's sound card going into the analog or digital input of the MPC. Then turn Input Thru ON and make sure you have the appropriate input thru source selected.

Ok but wont the quality be crap if i record through there?
tried through the mixer and the quality of the beat was crap ass hell

Your sound card will determine the quality of the audio. What kind of sound card do you have? If your sound card has a SPDIF (RCA-type) digital output, you will not have any issues with quality.

OW ok thnx for the help

From what I read, when you record on the MPC you are entering MIDI notes. If you use the sound loaded on the MPC, you will have the notes played back.... The reason the reason tracks don't appear on the bounce is because the sounds are generates outside of the MPC (in this case in the PC).
a soultion to this is to record the track on the hard drive and bounce all of it

Thats what i tried to do. Record it in to the harddisk of the mpc, with the options i have above.
And i knew mpc read only the data from reason...
What i dont understand is when while recording the whole beat i can hear all the sounds and beats but when its finsihshed and exported in to the harddisk, i can only hear the beat as in drums only..
