Apple Soundtrack Pro 3 - Manual (Page 419)

Soundtrack Pro exports mixdown files from the multitrack project and adds them to a
Final Cut Pro XML file containing the original sequence. For your convenience, the audio
tracks from the original sequence are moved to other tracks and are muted.
In Final Cut Pro, the Import XML dialog appears.
6 Use the Destination pop-up menu to choose your original project, then click OK.
A copy of your original sequence (with the name you specified earlier) appears in the
Browser.
7 Double-click the new sequence in the Browser to open it in the Timeline.
The sequence opens with the mixdown audio correctly synchronized to your clips in the
Timeline and the original audio tracks muted.
When you want to work on the project in Soundtrack Pro again, you can reopen it from
the Final Cut Pro Timeline.
