Apple Motion 3 - Manual (Page 1145)

Chapter 13 Working with Audio 1145
The Save As dialog appears.
Note: If Soundtrack Pro is not installed on your system, Send to Soundtrack Pro is not
available in the menu.
3 If needed, type a name for the modified audio track and select a location in which to
save the file.
Note: Because this process creates a modified copy of the original audio file, the source
audio is not changed.
4 Click Save as Soundtrack Pro Audio.
A project that contains the audio track is opened in Soundtrack Pro.
5 In Soundtrack Pro, make your changes to the audio file and save the project (press
Command-S).
Note: Do not choose File > Save As (from within Soundtrack Pro) and save a file with a
new name. If you save a new file, the live link between the audio track and Motion is
lost.
When Motion is displayed, the track and its saved name are automatically updated in
the Motion Audio tab. The original file, as well as the new Soundtrack Pro file, appear in
the Motion Media tab. A Soundtrack Pro file appears in the Media tab with a .stap
extension.
Important: If you send a single track that is part of a multitrack or multichannel file
imported as separate tracks, all the tracks are replaced when coming back from
Soundtrack Pro.
For more information on Soundtrack Pro, see the Soundtrack Pro documentation.
