Whole session export to audio is not possible at the moment, at least in one single action step. You can only have audio (mix-down) and MIDI (merge) tracks exported separately to an audio or MIDI file, respectively. You'll have to render and bounce your MIDI material back into one or more audio tracks first, for you to have all of it as audio tracks and then, yes, get your whole session exported to audio alright. Think of outboard MIDI driven hardware synths: bouncing is the only viable solution choice here ;)

Plugin effects may be inserted at a output bus level and there you have it applied to all its corresponding tracks' mix-down. Maybe it's what you want. The term "bus" might have a different meaning in Qtractor than on other traditional DAW's which effectively emulate the "bus" concept on the traditional mixing consoles. Ok. Let me cut the BS and take you to look at the "evil" signal-flow/block-diagram that is present in the user manual for your reference. You might find the picture worth of a thousand words of (my own) crappy explanations :)
