• Audible bounce. The Audible bounce option is only available when in real-time bounce mode
(when Fast Bounce is unchecked). When Audible bounce is unchecked, no audio output will be
heard during the bounce process. When in real-time bounce mode (Fast Bounce unchecked) and
Audible bounce is enabled, you can hear the output of the mixdown.
• 64-bit Engine. If you don’t usually run SONAR in 64-bit mode in order to save CPU, you can
turn 64-bit mode on when you export audio by enabling this check box. Remember to turn it off
after you export your audio, if you don’t want to use it during tracking or mixing.
Add to Audio CD Track List
Check the Add to Audio CD Track List option when you export audio as a 16-bit, 44,100 Hz stereo
Wave file (.wav). The Audio CD Burner dialog appears with the Wave file pre-loaded in the Track
list.
Add to Cakewalk Publisher
Check the Add to Cakewalk Publisher option when you export audio as an MP3 file. Publisher
launches automatically and the MP3 file is pre-loaded.

This dialog has the following fields:
Save in

file and folder window
This large window under the Save in field lists the files and folders that are inside the current folder.
Note: Depending on the gainstages used in the project and the mixdown options selected–such
as bouncing with source category assigned to Tracks, or with mute/solo or automation disabled
in the bounce settings or while freezing tracks–the output may be louder or softer than during
normal playback. Please be sure to turn down the master output level before using real-time
audible bounce under these scenarios to avoid the possibility of speaker damage.
