Step 2: Choose the Save Location
Select the folder or directory where you want to save the exported files.
Step 3: Set the File Naming Method
Choose to name the files using the Label/Track Name. Ensure the option to Split files based on labels is selected. Do not include audio before the first label.
Step 4: Select the File Format
Choose MP3 as the export format (or select other formats such as AIFF or WAV if needed). Leave the format options at the default settings unless specific adjustments are necessary.
Step 5: Start the Export Process
Click the Export button.
Metadata Management: #
Step 1: First Metadata Prompt
Add or modify the metadata as needed. Remove custom categories if they’re not necessary. Verify the track title, album title, and track number. Click OK to confirm.
Step 2: Subsequent Metadata Prompts
Repeat the process for each labeled segment. Ensure the title and track number are correct. Remove any unwanted custom categories.
