How to Export Audio in Ableton Live 7
Export professional-grade audio from projects made with Ableton Live 7's recording and sequencing software once your tracks are completed. You can either export the master output of your track, or each of the audio tracks separately. You can also determine the quality of the audio file being exported as well. After the exporting process has been completed, the rendered audio files will be stored on your computer's hard drive for further editing, or release and sharing purposes. You can begin the audio exporting process in Ableton Live 7 in under two minutes.
