Export Audio Mixdown
File Format
4 Insert Tempo Definition
This option is only available if Insert iXML Chunk is activated. It allows you to include
tempo information from the tempo track in the iXML chunk of the exported files.
MP3 (MPEG-1 Layer 3) files
MP3 files are highly compressed files that still provide good audio quality. They have the
extension .mp3.
1 Bit Rate
Sets the bit rate for the MP3 file. The higher the bit rate, the better the audio quality and
the larger the file. For stereo audio, 128 kBit/s is considered to be providing good audio
quality results.
2 Sample Rate
Sets the Sample Rate for the MP3 file.
3 High Quality Mode
Sets the encoder to a different resampling mode. This may give better results depending
on your settings. However, it does not allow you to select the Sample Rate.
4 Insert ID3 Tag
Includes ID3 Tag information in the exported file.
5 Edit ID3 Tag
Opens the ID3 Tag dialog that allows you to enter information about the file. This
information is embedded in the file and can be displayed by most MP3 playback
applications.
MP3 Encoder Upgrade (Cubase AI and Cubase LE only)
Cubase AI and Cubase LE provide a function for exporting your audio mixdown as MP3 files.
This function is limited to 20 trial encodings or a trial period of 30 days from the installation
date (whichever ends first). After this period, the function is disabled until you purchase the MP3
encoder for Cubase.
●
When the MP3 format is selected and you click Export, a window opens showing you how
many trial encodings you have left. You can upgrade to an unlimited MP3 export function
by clicking Go to Online Shop.
This will take you to Steinberg’s online shop where you can purchase the upgrade. Note
that a working internet connection is required.
Windows Media Audio Files (Windows only)
The Windows Media Audio format by Microsoft Inc. uses advanced audio codecs and lossless
compression. WMA files can be decreased in size with no loss of audio quality. The files have the
extension .wma.
