912 Chapter 14 Exporting Motion Projects
Using Compressor Presets
Compressor includes a large number of presets, including video, image, and audio
presets. When you export a project using Compressor, you can select a preset in the
Compressor Export Options dialog. These presets cannot be edited in Motion, but you
can edit them and create new presets in Compressor.
You can use multiple Compressor presets by choosing them from the Preset pop-up
menu in the Compressor Batch window.
For more information on working with Compressor presets, see the Compressor User’s
Manual. The manual is available from the Compressor Help menu, and is included in
the Documentation folder installed with Motion.
Exporting an Audio File
You can export an audio-only QuickTime movie. When you export audio only, the
exported movie includes all audio tracks in your project that are turned on and not
muted.
To export an audio file:
1 Choose File > Export.
2 In the Export dialog, type a name for the exported file, then browse to the location
where you want to save the file.
3 Choose “QuickTime movie” from the Kind pop-up menu.
4 Choose an export preset from the Export Preset pop-up menu, or click the Options
button to view and select export options.
5 Choose Audio Only from the Include pop-up menu to export audio only, or choose
Video and Audio to export a movie with both video and audio.
6 If you want to export only the marked play range instead of the entire project, turn on
the “Use marked play range” checkbox.
7 Click Export.
Your exported file is saved to the specified location.
After you export audio as a QuickTime movie, you can convert the QuickTime movie file
to another format using QuickTime Pro, Compressor, or another audio application.
There are no audio-only export presets. However, you can use any QuickTime movie
export preset and edit the audio export options. For more information on working with
audio files, see “
Working With Audio” on page 877.
