Using Soundtrack Pro with Other Applications

To update a mixdown clip in your Final Cut Pro sequence:

1

Follow the steps above for opening a Soundtrack Pro multitrack project file from a
mixdown clip in Final Cut Pro.

2

Once the multitrack project opens in Soundtrack Pro, make changes to the multitrack
project, then choose File > Save to save the project.

3

Choose File > Export.

4

Save the mixdown file with the same name, in the same file format, and in the same
location as the previous mixdown file.

5

Switch to Final Cut Pro and open the sequence containing your mixdown.

The mixdown clip remains in the same location, but the media file it refers to has been
replaced by your new mixdown file, so the mixdown is now updated in Final Cut Pro.

Note: For information about using the Soundtrack Pro Conform feature to merge a
picture edit and the sound edit of the same Final Cut Pro sequence, see Chapter 17,

Using Soundtrack Pro with DVD Studio Pro

Soundtrack Pro and DVD Studio Pro offer two possible workflows for editing
DVD Studio Pro audio clips.

 You can import two-channel Soundtrack Pro audio file projects into DVD Studio Pro

projects, which allows you to take advantage of the powerful features of the
Soundtrack Pro File Editor to nondestructively modify the original audio source file.
You can import and use Soundtrack Pro audio file projects in your DVD Studio Pro
projects like any other audio files. When you need to make a change to an audio file
project, it opens in Soundtrack Pro. Once you save the project in Soundtrack Pro, it
automatically updates in DVD Studio Pro.

 You can edit a DVD Studio Pro clip destructively by opening it in the Soundtrack Pro

File Editor. Once you have edited and saved the file in Soundtrack Pro, it updates in
DVD Studio Pro. You hear the changes in DVD Studio Pro without having to reimport
the clip.
