The Save As window will close, and the file name will appear in the File Name field in the Export Audio Data window. Should the file name need to be changed, click on the Select button and the Windows Save As dialog will open. By default the .wav file extension is used in the file name.

In the window below File Name will appear a list of Stream Ids with a description from the Audio Stream Info . If opening from the Audio Expert System™ Global Toolbar all Stream IDs are checked by default. If opening from a Wave Panel, the Stream ID where the export dialog was opened is automatically checked. You can check each stream that is to be exported. For convenience checking Select all below the stream list window will place checks in all streams.

Export Options

After selecting the streams to export, select the desired formats to export.
