Export Audio
Select to write the edited recording to a standalone audio file that you can share or open in another application. The Export Audio dialog box appears.
The dialog is modeless: you can leave it open, keep working on the recording, and export again. It remembers its settings for the next export.
Output Audio File
Output Folder
The path to the location where the audio file will be written appears in this field. Click the three dots to the right of the field to browse to a different location. Check use location of current recording to write the file into the same folder as the recording. Check open folder on export to reveal the finished file in the file manager once the export is done.
File Name
The name for the exported audio file appears in this field. You can edit the name directly, or click the three dots to the right of the field to enter the name and path in a file selector. Check use name of current recording to derive the name from the recording.
The file name ending follows the format you select below; changing the format updates the ending.
Format
Select the audio file format to write:
-
WAV — uncompressed PCM, lossless. Select the bit depth.
-
FLAC — compressed, lossless. Select the compression level (higher is smaller but slower to encode; it never affects quality).
-
ALAC — Apple Lossless in an .m4a container. Select the bit depth.
-
MP3, Ogg Vorbis, AAC, Opus — compressed, lossy. Select the quality or target bitrate.
| The lossless formats are the safe choice for further analysis: exporting and re-importing them never adds generation loss. |
