sample rate, the le size increases without increasing the audio quality. For CD
burning, select 44.100 kHz, because this is the sample rate used on audio CDs.
Bit Depth
Allows you to select a bit depth for the mixdown le. You can select 8-bit, 16-bit, 24-bit,
32-bit, 32-bit (oat), or 64-bit (oat). If you plan to re-import the mixdown le into
Cubase, select 32-bit (oat). This is the resolution used for audio processing in Cubase.
32-bit (oat) les are twice the size of 16-bit les. For CD burning, use the 16-bit option,
as CD audio is always 16 bit. In this case, we recommend dithering.

Allows you to select a channel mode for the mixdown le:
Interleaved
Allows you to export to an interleaved le.
Split Channels
Allows you to export the 2 channels of a stereo bus as separate mono les.
Mono Downmix
Allows you to downmix the 2 channels of a stereo bus to a single mono le.
Compression Level
Sets the compression level for the FLAC le. Since FLAC is a lossless format, the level
has more inuence on the encoding speed than on the le size.
Ogg Vorbis Files
Ogg Vorbis is an open source, patent-free audio encoding and streaming technology, offering
compressed audio
les of small size, but with comparatively high audio quality. Ogg Vorbis les
have the extension .ogg.
To open the settings for Ogg Vorbis les, select OggVorbis in the File Type pop-up menu.
Quality
Sets the quality for the variable bit rate encoding. This setting determines between
which limits the bit rate will vary. The higher the value, the higher the sound quality but
also the larger the
les.
