Steps
Set Loop Markers for Desired Render Area
In the Playlist, left-click and drag across the top timeline to define the start and end points for your render. This creates a loop selection that specifies which part of your song FL Studio will export.
Open the Export Dialog
Go to 'File' in the top menu, then select 'Export'. Choose your desired file format; 'WAV' is recommended for highest quality, while 'MP3' is suitable for smaller file sizes and sharing.
Configure Render Settings
In the render dialog, ensure 'Full song' is selected under 'Mode' (if rendering loop markers, it will automatically default to 'Loop selection'). Crucially, verify 'Split mixer tracks' is OFF unless you specifically want stems. Check 'Enable master effects' to include all effects on your master track.
Adjust Quality and Start Render
Set the appropriate 'Resampling' quality (e.g., 512-point sinc for high quality) and enable 'High quality for all MP3s' if exporting to MP3. Click 'Start' to begin the rendering process and save your final track.
