Rendering Realtime Effects to Actions

Choosing this command renders any realtime effects applied to the audio file project and
the project’s envelopes to an action in the Actions list, letting you turn these effects and
envelopes on or off, reorder them in the list, and save them with the audio file project.

To render realtime effects and envelopes to an action

µ

Choose Process > Render to Action.

Once you render realtime effects and envelopes to an action, the realtime effects are
deleted from the project, and the envelopes are reset to their default values.

Some effects, including reverb and delay, add audio that extends past the end of the file.
This is called an effect tail. When you render realtime effects to an action, if any of the
effects creates an effect tail that extends past the end of the audio file, the file lengthens
to include the effect tail.

How Files Are Saved in the File Editor Project View

When you edit an audio file in the File Editor project view, the source audio file is handled
as follows:

If the clip’s audio file format is a native Soundtrack Pro audio file project: Any changes you

make are saved to the audio file project, allowing you to make nondestructive changes
to the media.
