// WHAT IT DOES
File → Export Audio/Video. Pick what to render (Master, individual tracks, returns), the file format (WAV, AIFF, FLAC, MP3), bit depth, sample rate, and dithering if downsampling.
Click Export → Live renders the selection in the background.
Think of it like → Like printing a photo. The negative (project) stays; the print (file) is what you share.
▸ WHY YOU CARE
- • Share your finished mix as MP3 or WAV.
- • Bounce stems for collaboration or remixes.
// SEE & HEAR IT
No simulator for this mission — read & quiz only.
▸ HOW IT WORKS
Live plays selection through routed signal chain → captures master (or per-track) buffer → writes to disk in chosen format.
▸ Signal flow — watch the dot
▸ SIGNAL FLOW
Glowing dot = your signal travelling through Live.
▸ LISTEN FOR
- • Status bar shows render progress and elapsed time.
▸ WALKTHROUGH (3 steps)
- 1. DO: Set the loop brace to your full song. File → Export Audio/Video.▸ LISTEN: Dialog opens.
- 2. DO: Pick WAV 24-bit 48 kHz, Master only.▸ LISTEN: Reasonable mastering source.
- 3. DO: Pick MP3 320 kbps for sharing.▸ LISTEN: Smaller file, near-CD quality.
▸ COMMON MISTAKES
- ✗ Forgetting to set the export range — renders only the loop brace.
- ✗ Exporting MP3 as your master — keep WAV/AIFF as the master.
