5 In the Save Bounce As dialog, name your bounce and pick where it should be saved, then
click Save. Pro Tools begins bouncing to disk. Pro Tools bounces are done in real time, so you
hear audio playback of your mix during the bounce process (you cannot adjust any Pro Tools
controls during a bounce).
After Mixdown, Mastering
After the bounce is completed, you will have an audio file that you can convert to MP3 using
most common CD burning software. Converting to MP3 lets you listen to it on your iPod, post
on your site, or send via email. Or, use the burner software to write the file to an audio CD that
can be played on standard CD players. Listening to a reference CD in an environment other
than your studio is a time-tested, professional way to see how your mix translates to other sys-
tems or listening environments.
