To export a file from Adobe Audition, use the Adobe Media Encoder for optimal format and preset options.
Here's a breakdown of the process:
- Finalize Your Project: Ensure your editing, mixing, and mastering are complete within your Audition session.
- Initiate Export: Go to File > Export > Export with Adobe Media Encoder.
- Adobe Media Encoder: This will open the Adobe Media Encoder application.
- Format and Preset Selection: Within Adobe Media Encoder, you'll be able to select the desired format (e.g., MP3, WAV, AAC) and preset (e.g., High Quality, Low Quality) for your export. The available options are extensive, allowing for tailored exports.
- Destination and Filename: Specify the destination folder and file name for your exported file.
- Rewrapping Options: Consider "rewrapping" your video (if applicable) to avoid re-encoding the video stream, which can save time and maintain quality. This is relevant if your Audition project involves video editing.
- Start Queue: Click the "Start Queue" button (often a green play button) in Adobe Media Encoder to begin the export process.
- Monitor Progress: The encoding progress will be displayed within Adobe Media Encoder.
Key Considerations:
- File Format: Choose a file format appropriate for your intended use. MP3 is a common choice for audio distribution due to its small file size, while WAV is often preferred for archival purposes due to its uncompressed nature.
- Presets: Presets provide pre-configured settings for common export scenarios. You can also customize presets to meet specific requirements.
- Bitrate: The bitrate determines the quality and file size of the exported audio. Higher bitrates generally result in better quality but larger file sizes.
- Adobe Media Encoder: Adobe Media Encoder is a powerful tool for video and audio encoding, offering a wide range of options for customizing your exports.
By following these steps, you can successfully export your audio files from Adobe Audition using Adobe Media Encoder, ensuring optimal quality and compatibility.
