Note: You can set Premiere Pro to render the audio tracks whenever you render the video tracks. For more information,
see "Render audio when rendering
The rendering time depends on your system resources and the complexity of the segment.
To maximize the quality of motion in rendered preview files, check the Maximum Render Quality option in Sequence
Settings. For more information, see
Render audio when rendering video
By default, Premiere Pro does not render audio tracks when you select either Sequence > Render Effects In Work Area,
or Sequence > Render Entire Work Area. However, playback may suffer when the data throughput of your disk drive
cannot sustain the flow when mixing multiple channels of audio and audio in a complex sequence. You can change
this default so that Premiere Pro automatically renders audio previews whenever it renders video previews.
Select Edit > Preferences > General (Windows) or Premiere Pro > Preferences > General (Mac OS).

Work with preview files
When you render previews, Premiere Pro creates files on your hard disk. These preview files contain the results of any
effects that Premiere Pro processed during a preview. If you preview the same work area more than once without
making any changes, Premiere Pro instantly plays back the preview files instead of processing the sequence again.
Premiere Pro stores the preview files in a folder you can specify. Similarly, preview files can save time when you export
the final video program by using the processed effects already stored.
Note: Adobe Media Encoder does not automatically use Premiere Pro preview files for encoding. To make use of the
Premiere Pro preview files, you must select the Use Previews option in Adobe Media Encoder for each encoding process.
To further save time, Premiere Pro maintains existing preview files whenever possible. Preview files move along with
their associated segment of a sequence as you edit your project. When a segment of a sequence is changed, Premiere
Pro automatically trims the corresponding preview file, saving the remaining unchanged segment.
When completely done with a project, delete preview files to save disk space.
