System information

Tips:
n When you render a 5.1 surround project to AIFF (.aif), Perfect Clarity Audio (.pca),
Wave64 (.w64), or Wave (.wav) formats, you can save each of the surround master
busses to a separate file by choosing the multiple mono setting from the Template
drop-down list. For example, if you'd typed My Film.wav in the File name box, the
following files would be rendered: My Film Right.wav, My Film Right Surround.wav, My
Film LFE.wav, My Film Left.wav, My Film Left Surround.wav, and My Film Center.wav.
For more information, see "5.1 surround projects" on page 433.
n When you render a 5.1 surround project to WAV or WAV64 format using the 48,000
Hz, 16 Bit, 5.1, PCM or 48,000 Hz, 32 Bit, 5.1, PCM template, you can create a single
5.1 channel file. The rendered file contains channel-mapping information so that
Vegas Pro will preserve surround panning information when adding these files to 5.1
surround projects.
Legacy Sony applications (and third-party applications) may not be able to read these
5.1-channel files. In this case, you can render a single six-channel file by selecting the
Enable multichannel mapping check box and creating a channel mapping using the
Surround Master outputs.
For more information about rendering multichannel audio and setting up multichannel
mapping, please see "Rendering Multichannel Audio Files" on page 518.
4. Select the Render loop region only check box if you want to save only the portion of the project that
is contained within the Loop Region. Loop Playback does not need to be selected for this option to
work.
5. If the selected file type supports it, you can select the Save project markers with media file check
box to include markers, regions, and command markers in the rendered media file. If the
information cannot be saved in your media file, it will create an .sfl file (using the same base name
as your media file).
6. Click the Render button. A dialog is displayed to show rendering progress.
When rendering is complete, click the Open button to play the file with its associated player, or click
Open Folder to open the folder where you saved the file.
