Using Export Presets

You can streamline your workflow by saving all export settings (any combination of
export objects, formats, and actions) into a collection of presets for future use.

Custom export presets can include any combination of exported items, file type, bit
depth, sample rates, and post-export actions.

To create a new export preset:

1

Choose File > Export (or press Command-E).

The Export dialog appears.

2

Configure the Export dialog to reflect the export options you want to use for the
exported file or files.

 For standard audio file types (AIFF, WAVE, NeXT, and SoundDesigner II), the options

include Exported Items, File Type, the “Create multiple mono files” checkbox, Bit
Depth, Sample Rate, and post-export actions.

 For compressed audio file types (MP3, AAC/Podcast, Dolby Digital Professional/AC-3),

the options include the detailed settings for each of those formats, the choice of
Compressor presets, and post-export actions.

3

Choose Save Preset from the Preset pop-up menu.

4

Type a name for the new preset and click OK.

To apply a saved export preset:
