I've put together all of the sequences that I want to use in song mode. I'm accustomed to Mixdown and Mastering on the MV-8000 and exporting the track as .wav. I'm curious as to how to do this on the MPC5000. I'm still fairly new to it.

Chapter 7: SONG Mode

In SONG mode, you can set the order of multiple sequences an d play them in a series. SONG mode is useful when you
are creating a song by combining short sequences. You can check the structure of an entire song while working, so you
can finish the song easily.

You can also perform direct to Hard Disk recordings here in SONG mode as well.
For more on Hard Disk recording, see
HD RECORD on page 67.

Note: MIDI recording is disabled in SONG Mode.

Structure of a song
The MPC5000 can handle up to 20 songs. Each song has 250 steps. You can
create a song by assigning sequences to each step in the list. For each step, you
can assign a sequence, and also set th e number of times the MPC5000 should
repeat the sequence. You can create a song in the SONG mode, which can be
accessed by pressing [MODE] and [PAD 15]

Hey Lamp I think he wants to mix his song down and render it to a single wav file.
