trouble bouncing/exporting project in Logic 9

Hello everyone, i have been trying to master the workflow with my MPC 2000Xl & Logic Pro 9 for some time and im getting very close to getting a steady workflow down but i am still not there yet.

Here is my dilemma

I cant bounce/export my project onto my desktop correctly,

Of course i know where the button and tabs for bouncing and exporting are in Logi Pro 9 but something appaers to be wrong with the audio/mp3 file i end up with.
1 track in logic is a 16 bar track of chops i have sequenced on the MPC, the rest of the tracks are software instruments from logic.

I am using the MPC as a midi controller so i can take advantage of the software instruments inside of Logic 9,

i.e.
trk-1 is the chops i have arranged in a 16 bar track,created on the MPC
trk-2 is a snare from a logic drum kit
trk-3 is a kick drum from a Logic drum kit
trk-4 is a synth bass from Logic

Essentially the only trk that isnt a Logic Software Instrument is trk 1-which is the chops i arranged from a sample not from logic(sampled from a record)

My end result is i get all the tracks to come thru except for the audio track that contains the chops, also the midi /software instruments tracks i do get seem to be off on the timing and i noticed the actual recordings are named something different than what the actual instruments i have used are

All i want to have is the project(all tracks) converted into one audio track-no stems just one track

Also should i be bouncing or exporting to achieve this? Any help is always appreciated,didnt find much on the forum about this

OK - lots to chew on here and a little bit confusing. Surely, you mean "tracking"?

This should be a record armed audio track in Logic.

The timing could be many things. The most common and normal being that there is a delay in the MIDI signal going to the MPC to trigger the voices and return to the computer. Obviously, the instruments within logic don't experience this. You can adjust this MIDI delay in Sync Preferences. However, if you have heavy DSP plugins on your master buss, you may also experience a delay. Again, delay compensation only works with Logic source tracks not external inputs. And again, this is adjustable (IIRC).

Once all your tracks are armed and in sync, you can either record the individual tracks (recommended if you wish to return to the mix in future) or simply bounce them directly to file without recording them first.
