One way to do it is to go to the Arrangement screen, highlight everything you have recorded (including the master track), then export the audio.

Manual:
The Export dialog’s Rendered Track chooser offers several options for which audio signal to
render:

Master = the post-fader signal at Live’s Master output. If you are monitoring the Master output, you can be sure that the rendered file will contain exactly what you hear...

When Export Audio/Video is invoked while the Arrangement View is up, Live will render the selected time range.

If you would like to render the current Arrangement loop, choose the Select Loop command from the Edit menu prior to choosing Export Audio/Video. If you choose Export Audio/Video while the Session View is up, Live will ask you to specify the length of the sample to be rendered. The Export Audio/Video dialog will come up with a bars-beats-sixteenths field where you can type in the desired length. Live will capture audio starting at the current play start position for whichever duration you have specified.
