from my understanding, this sounds pretty much like what is happening in the mastering stage. And I guess, yes, you'd traditionally export all your tracks and assemble them gap-less in a separate session.

If you want a fancy automated way of joining your sessions, just doing it manually is probably much quicker and easier (except you expect to do this very often). :)

As a compromise, you could link the audio files of your "meta session" to all the exports instead of copying the files to your session folder but then you can't move your sessions around in your file system…

Best,

lp
