If you have Final Cut Pro installed on your system, the multitrack project automatically opens as a sequence in Final Cut Pro, with the mixdown correctly positioned in the Timeline and the original audio tracks muted.

If you do not have Final Cut Pro installed on your system, you can save the project and later import the resulting Soundtrack Pro project into the original Final Cut Pro project with the mixdown correctly positioned in the Timeline and the original audio tracks muted.

More shortcuts have been designed to help you repeatedly move audio clips between Soundtrack Pro and Final Cut Pro. For more information, see the Final Cut Pro User Manual and the Soundtrack Pro User Manual.

Exporting a Podcast

Exporting a podcast from Soundtrack Pro files is easy. You simply mark your multitrack project with podcast markers and then export your podcast.

To add podcast markers to your project:

1To display the podcast track in the Timeline, choose Podcast Track from the Show pop-up menu in the upper-right corner of the Timeline.

Choose Podcast Track from the Show pop-up menu.

The podcast track appears near the top of the Timeline.

By default, the podcast track appears just below the video track (if you have one in your project) with a single blue podcast region that spans the entire length of the project.
