Chapter 14 Using Soundtrack Pro With Apple Professional Applications 259

To send an audio track from Motion to the Waveform Editor:

1 In the Motion Audio tab or Timeline Layer list, select the audio track.

2 Choose Edit > Send Audio to Soundtrack.

A new audio file project is created for the audio track, and a Save As dialog appears.

3 In the Save As dialog, type a name for the new project, and browse to a location to

save the project.

A new audio file project containing the audio track opens in the Soundtrack Pro

Waveform Editor.

4 Edit the audio file project in the Waveform Editor.

You can use the commands and functions described in Chapter 7, “Working in the

Waveform Editor,” on page 143. You can graphically edit the file, apply actions, analyze

the file, and fix analyzed problems.

When you are finished editing the audio file project of the audio track, you save the

project in Soundtrack Pro.

5 In Soundtrack Pro, choose File > Save.

When you save an audio file project sent from Motion, a render file is included in the

project, which Motion uses to update the audio track. If you save the project using the

Save As command, be sure to leave the Render checkbox selected each time you save

the project, so the clip will be updated in the Motion project. If you deselect the

Render checkbox, you will not be able to reconnect the audio file project with the

audio track, and your changes will be lost.

When you have followed the steps described above, the clip is updated in Motion. You

hear the clip with the changes you made in the Waveform Editor, without having to

reimport the clip. You can make roundtrips between Motion and Soundtrack Pro by

opening the saved audio file project, making changes, then saving the project. Each

time you save the project, the clip is updated in Motion.
