--- layout: default title: Export Dialog ---
When you have finished mixing your session, you probably want to export it to a sound file to burn to a CD, upload to the web, or whatever. Session > Export > Export to Audio file(s)... shows the Export Dialog to do this.
You can also export the outputs of multiple tracks & busses all at once via Session > Export > Stem Export....

You can also create a 'Preset' consisting of one or more formats. Ardour provides some ready-made presets, too:
This tab allows you to select the range (or ranges) of the timeline to export. By default, "session" is enabled - this will export the whole session from the start marker to the end marker.
Here you can choose which outputs (tracks or busses) should be sent to the exported file.
