Chapter 11: Saving, Exporting,
and Closing Files

dobe Audition lets you save audio files and export sessions to a variety of common
audio file formats.

Saving audio files

When working with audio files in Edit View, you can save your audio in a variety of
common file formats. The format you choose depends on how you plan to use the file. For
more information on supported file formats, see “Choosing an audio file format” on
page 231.

When choosing a file format, keep in mind that different formats allow different infor-
mation to be stored with the file. As a result, saving a file in a format different from its
original format might cause some information to be discarded.

To save an audio file in Edit View:

1

Do one of the following:

Choose File > Save to save changes you made to the current file. Alternatively, click the
Save button

in the File toolbar.

Choose File > Save As to save changes to a different file. Alternatively, click the Save As
button

in the File toolbar.

Choose File > Save Copy As to save an identical copy of the file while leaving the original
file active.

Choose File > Save Selection to save the currently selected audio to a new file. Alterna-
tively, click the Save Selection button

in the File toolbar. This command is useful for

saving small segments of a larger file. For example, you can use it to break up a long
recording into smaller, more manageable tracks.

Choose File > Save All to save all open files.

2

Choose a location for the file, type a filename, and choose a file format.
