After you have finished making changes, save the project and use the Export Mix
command to export a new audio clip (using the same name and location as the one
opened in the Final Cut Pro project). This ensures that this new version of the audio file
automatically appears in the Final Cut Pro project.
Exporting a Clip or Sequence From Final Cut Pro
to Soundtrack Pro
Final Cut Pro includes the ability to export a clip or sequence for use in Soundtrack Pro.
This process is most useful when you do not intend to open the clip or sequence in
Final Cut Pro later. Exporting this way creates a QuickTime movie that contains the
video (if applicable) and the audio.
To export Final Cut Pro sequences or clips for use in Soundtrack Pro:
1 In the Browser or Timeline, select the sequence or clip you want to export to
Soundtrack Pro.
2 Choose File > Export > For Soundtrack.
3 Choose a destination and enter a filename for the QuickTime movie.
By default, scoring markers are exported with the sequence or clip when you export for
Soundtrack Pro. You can choose not to export markers by choosing None from the
Markers pop-up menu. You can also choose to export other types of markers; however,
scoring markers are the only type of marker visible when you open the sequence or
clip in Soundtrack Pro.
4 Click Save.
Using Motion With Final Cut Pro
Final Cut Pro includes support for exchanging clips and sequences between
Final Cut Pro and Motion. The applications are closely integrated so that, when using
Motion and Final Cut Pro on the same computer, you have the option of working with
the Motion project in both applications at the same time, without having to worry
about moving files between applications. Or, you can export clips for someone else to
use for creating advanced motion graphics while you edit, and then import the Motion
project into your sequence when it’s ready.
