2 You can also choose to include handles using the “Add X frame handles” option in the
Advanced Settings of the Video panel to add extra frames to the beginning and end
of each exported audio clip. This will provide needed editing flexibility to whomever is
refining your audio.
3 The type of audio file that’s exported is determined by your choice of video format in
the Video panel:
If you choose the MXF OP-Atom video format, then MXF audio files will be exported.
If you choose the QuickTime format, then Broadcast Wave files will be exported.
4 All video in your timeline will be rendered and output as a single reference movie,
in the format that’s selected in the Video panel, with all effects and titles baked in.
Subtitles can also be burned into the reference movie or exported as a file. If you want
to provide a window burn, you can enable visible metadata using the Workspace > Data
Burn-In window. If you do not wish to export a reference movie, you can uncheck the
Export Video box in the Video panel.
When you output using the Pro Tools preset, an AAF of the audio tracks of the current Timeline
is exported that’s formatted for import into Pro Tools, or any other digital audio workstation
(DAW) software that’s compatible with the Pro Tools style of AAF import.
Exported audio files have the file name and timecode of the source media they were
extracted from, to enable relinking to the source media in Pro Tools, if necessary. In the
case of Video+Audio files that have been synced in DaVinci Resolve, exported audio
files are given the timecode and name of the synced audio source file, not that of the
video clip.
Each audio track exports whatever custom name you may have given it, for
use by Pro Tools.
All track and clip volume automation is exported, with all keyframes.
iXML metadata is also exported, including channel names when available.
IMPORTANT: When you export to Pro Tools in the Deliver page, audio effects are
neither exported nor baked in, which means that FairlightFX, EQ, Compression, Pitch,
and Elastic Wave effects will be ignored. If you are experiencing problems with
imported AAF files, check to see if there are audio effects or audio compound clips in
the Timeline, and replace any you find with duplicates of the same audio clips that
have no effects.
Audio Only
This preset is specifically for rendering an audio-only media file from the Timeline. Video
rendering is disabled, and this preset defaults to rendering the Main 1 bus as a single clip,
rendering one track per channel using the MXF OP-Atom format set to the Linear PCM codec,
at 16-bits. However, the QuickTime, MP4, and WAVE formats are also available, and you can
also render 24- or 32-bit output. Additionally, you have the option to render other Mains or
Submixes, or to choose a specific Timeline Track to render. Finally, you can choose to render
the current program as Individual Clips.
