Solo Selected Track, bounce mix.

Hey @Lynn_Graber,

In general, we highly encourage users to utilize Andrew Scheps' Bounce Factory for printing stems in Pro Tools. This is the most thoroughly used and tested way to bounce stems on SoundFlow's platform. There is a reason that Andrew has spent hours and hours dialing this workflow in.

However, I did flesh out a possible version of the script you were working on below and I have linked to sections of the forum that helped piece this together. This should also satisfy your original post regarding this workflow.

For the "Wait for Bounce to finish" section, I'm referencing: Waiting for the bounce dialog to complete/close #post-10
For the "do for each track" section, I'm referencing: How to adapt this code to selected tracks #post-10

The only other changes I made were to how the track name is retrieved. You can use:

sf.ui.proTools.invalidate().selectedTrack.normalizedTrackName;

to get the track name as text variable.

// Activate Pro Tools Window and Invalidate
if (!sf.ui.proTools.isRunning) throw `Pro Tools is not running`;

sf.ui.proTools.appActivateMainWindow();
sf.ui.proTools.mainWindow.invalidate();

function bounceSelectedTrack() {
    // Get Selected Track
    let selectedTrack = sf.ui.proTools.invalidate().selectedTrack;

    // Get Track Name of Selected Track
    let selectedTrackName = selectedTrack.normalizedTrackName;

    // Solo Selected Track
    selectedTrack.trackSetSolo({
        targetValue: "Enable",
    });

    // Click "Bounce Mix..." from File Menu
    sf.ui.proTools.menuClick({
        menuPath: ["File", "Bounce Mix..."],
    }, `Could not click "Bounce Mix" in Pro Tools`);

    // Define Bounce Window
    let bounceWin = sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is("Bounce Mix").first;

    // Wait for Bounce Window to Appear
    bounceWin.elementWaitFor({
        waitType: "Appear",
    });

    // Set Track Name
    sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is("Bounce Mix").first.textFields.first.elementSetTextFieldWithAreaValue({ value: selectedTrackName });

    // Set Bounce Path
    bounceWin.groups.whoseTitle.is("Location").first.textFields.first.elementSetTextFieldWithAreaValue({
        value: "Bounced Files/Stems/",
    });

    // Click Bounce
    bounceWin.buttons.whoseTitle.is("Bounce").first.elementClick();

    // Wait for Bounce Window to Disappear
    bounceWin.elementWaitFor({ waitType: "Disappear", timeout: -1, onError: "Continue" });

    // Wait for Bounce to finish (Wait for bounce dialog to appear, then to disappear)
    var bouncingLabel = sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is('').first.children.whoseRole.is("AXStaticText").whoseValue.is('Bouncing...').first;
    bouncingLabel.elementWaitFor({ timeout: 1000, onError:"Continue" });
    bouncingLabel.elementWaitFor({ waitType: 'Disappear', timeout: -1 }); // -1 is endless timeout (cancel by Ctrl+Shift+Esc)

    // Clear Solo on Selected Track 
    selectedTrack.trackSetSolo({
        targetValue: "Disable",
    });

}

//Get selected tracks
const originalTracks = sf.ui.proTools.selectedTrackNames;

//Do for each track.
sf.ui.proTools.selectedTracks.trackHeaders.slice().map(track => {
    //Select track
    track.trackSelect();

    //Scroll track into View
    track.trackScrollToView();

    //Code to execute here
    bounceSelectedTrack();
});

//Restore previously selected tracks
sf.ui.proTools.trackSelectByName({ names: originalTracks });

log('Bouncing Complete');
