Quicktime Audio - Exporting

Once you have a final recording that you want to use for your final presentation, you will need to export your recording as a file that you can use in your iMovie.

Any recording that you are not going to use can be moved to the trash can. Drag and drop any unwanted audio recordings to the trash can. You will only need your final recording.

First, open your audio file in QuickTime. Then, click on File and select Export from the drop down menu. 

A new window will appear that asks you how you would like to export the file. In the Export window, you will see that it is exporting a Movie to QuickTime Movie. However, you want the sound file to be exporting as a .WAV file.

Click on the small blue arrows to the right of the Export window. A drop-down menu will appear. Choose Sound to Wave from the menu.

In the Where window, choose Desktop.







Now, if you look on your desktop you should see your audio file listed as "audio#.wav". You can change the file name of the audio by clicking on the file on the desktop. Now, you are ready to begin the pre-production phase.
