Enter a name for the exported file, then navigate to the location where you want to save
the file.

Output files are given the same names as the tracks, busses, or submixes being exported.
For example, “Track 1” results in “Track 1.aif.” If you select the “Create multiple mono files”
checkbox, the Mixer object name (for example, “Track 1”) serves as the base name to
which channel codes are appended (for example, “Track 1.R.aif” and “Track 1.L.aif”). For
more information, see

Click Export.

When you export a project, track, bus, or submix that includes an effect (for example, a
reverb or delay) that produces a tail that extends past the end of the project, the exported
file lengthens to include the tail.

You can also select part of an audio file and add an effect to a selection. When you add
an effect that produces a tail to a selection, the tail is blended with the audio following
the selection until the effect level falls below –96 dB. The project lengthens to include
the tail if necessary.

About Exporting Multiple Mono Files
