252 Chapter 13 Exporting Multitrack Projects

Distributing a Multitrack Project and its Media

Files Together

You can save a multitrack project with all of the media files it uses together in the same

folder. Saving the project and its media files together is useful when you want to move

the project from one computer to another in order to continue working on it, or to

archive the project and media for later use.

To save a project and its audio files together:

1 Choose File > Save.

2 In the dialog that appears, select the Collect Audio Files checkbox.

3 Navigate to the folder in which you want to save the project and its audio files, then

click Save.

The project file, and a copy of every audio file the project uses, are saved in the

selected location.

4 You can optionally create a new folder for the collected project. To create a new folder

for the project, click the triangle next to the Where pop-up menu to expand the Save

window, then click New Folder. It’s a good idea to save each collected project in its own

folder.

5 If the project includes a video, you can optionally select the Collect Video File checkbox

to save the video in the selected folder.

If the folder already contains any of the media files, an alert appears, asking if you want

to replace the existing files.

Note: Because video files are typically very large files, saving a copy of the video file

may take several minutes, and may require a large amount of disk space.

For information on making roundtrips between Final Cut Pro and Soundtrack Pro, see

Chapter 14, “Using Soundtrack Pro With Apple Professional Applications,” on page 253.
