A Note About Rendering Audio in Pro Tools

Most of the assignments for this class require that you turn in a stereo interleaved wave format file at a sample rate of 44.1kHz and bit depth of 16bit, the same as a standard audio CD. To render audio in this format from the Pro Tools menu choose “File” > “Bounce” > “Audio”. Next, in the dialogue box choose “WAV” under “File Format”, “44.1kHz” under “Sample Rate”, “16 bit” under “Resolution”, and “Stereo Interleaved” under “Format”.

Finally press “Bounce” to name and render the audio. It is important to understand that selecting a range in the “Edit” view before bouncing will only render that range. If you want to render the entire file, don’t select anything. Muting and soloing tracks is also reflected in the bounced audio.
