Dialog box reference ► Export Audio dialog

Select File > Export > Audio to open the Export Audio dialog box. This command lets you export your projects as Wave, MP3 files, and other types of formats.
Note: If you select any data in your project, only that data is included when you choose to export audio. If a project is using any effects that add a “tail” to the end of an audio track, such as reverb or delay, then you should make sure that you select extra time in the time ruler at the end of the current selection before using the File > Export Audio command. This ensures that the “tail” is included in the audio mixdown.
