Saving Your Work

If you wish to save your work so far, you may do so by selecting File > Save Live Set. If this is your first time

saving the file, you’ll be prompted for a file name and location. Remember this location so you can open the file

again at a future time.

Exporting the Audio for CD Burning

If you’re satisfied with your recording and wish to burn it to CD, you’ll need to export the audio to a format that can

be read by CD burning programs.

1. Selecting the audio to export: Perhaps when you were listening to your recording, you noticed

there was time at the beginning and end of the recording you wish to remove. Or, perhaps you

recorded a series of different songs and only wish to export one of them. Click and drag to select the

area of audio you wish to export. Be careful not to drag your actual recording itself.

2. Select Render to Disk: From the File menu, select Render to Disk. This will cause the Render to Disk

panel to appear.
