PCM Options in the Bounce Dialog Window

File Format
You can select between a PCM file (in SDII, AIFF, or Broadcast Wave format) or MP3,
AAC, and burn to an Audio CD in one go.

PCM, MP3, and AAC files can be individually bounced and added to the iTunes library.

PCM files in SDII, AIFF, or Wave format can be added to the Audio window.

Resolution
This is where you define the resolution of the bounced file. The options are 16 Bit, 8 Bit
(for multimedia productions) or 24 Bit (for mastering to DVD).

Sample Rate
This pull-down menu allows you to define the desired sample rate for your bounced
audio file(s). Options range from 11,025 to 19,2000 Hz, and include the three most
commonly used sample rates: 44,100 (CD-DA), 48,000 (DAT) and 96,000 (DVD).

Stereo File Type
You can select between split stereo (for use in ProTools), or interleaved stereo (for
further use in Logic or for CD writing software) here.

Setting Stereo File Type to Split Stereo disables Burn (following a warning message).

Surround Bounce
Bounces all Surround (see “Surround” on page 279) channels as separate files.

Enabling Surround Bounce disables MP3, AAC, and Burn (following a warning message).
