Hi, not really.
When you put the region on its own track, assuming each region is 1 song on the tape, just solo the track before exporting. Only the length of that track, containing that region/ song will be used. I would just make sure when I put the region on its on track that I paste it at time 0. Right at the beginning of the project.
