Save multitrack sessions
A multitrack session file is a small, non-audio file. It merely stores information about locations of related audio files
on your hard drive, the duration of each audio file within the session, the envelopes and effects applied to various
tracks, and so forth. You can reopen a saved session file later to make further changes to the mix.
If you create multitrack compositions entirely in Adobe Audition, save session files in the native SES format. If you
plan to share multitrack compositions with other applications, however, save sessions in XML format.
Third-party developers may provide support for additional formats by using the Adobe Audition Software
Developer’s Kit (SDK). For more information, see www.adobe.com/go/learn_au_sdk.
1 In Multitrack View, do one of the following:
• Choose File > Save Session to save changes to the current session file.
• Choose File > Save Session As to save changes to a different session file.
• Choose File > Save All to save the session file and all the audio files it uses.
2 In the dialog box, select a location for the file, and type a filename.
3 From the Save As Type menu, choose the session file format.
