i want to do a channel batch export - which i know how to do - but i don’t understand what the four options in the Audio Engine Output - Split Channels refer to. ie 1. audio_L wav, / 2. Audio_01.wav / 3. Audio_01(Left).wav / 4. Audio.L.wav…I suspect it’s got sth to do with mono or stereo or sth, but i can’t see what and I can’t locate any info about this in the manual, so I don’t know which i should choose for what i want to do.
Can you help? (Also I can’t see how to post a new topic in these forums…maybe I don’t have that option?)
You’ll hate yourself for this - but it’s just giving you options for how you want the files to be named I.e., you’re not choosing an audio format, just a pattern for the filename. Some programs need split files to be named in a particular way.
Worth mentioning - no one really deals with split files anymore (except some postproduction applications, and older versions of Pro Tools) – I’ll assume you have a good reason for splitting them…if not, I wouldn’t do it - split files are a pain in the butt
thanks for that reply meta-red - have followed your advice re. split channels…though i reckon i could probably think of a few better reasons for hating myself than just that!
