Mixing a Capture Session in a Different Recording Application
106 106
For users who wish to mix their Capture Session in a DAW other
than Studio One, there are several ways in which to import
your Capture session, as described in the following.
Save a Capture Session as Open TL
Many audio-recording programs provide support for opening a
document type called Open TL (Open Track List). An Open TL file
provides a reference for all of the audio tracks and Audio Events,
with their corresponding positions, in your Capture Session, so that
another audio program can reconstruct your Session automatically.
This makes it possible for you to open your Capture Session and
work as you normally do in your favorite recording application.
To save an Open TL version of your Session, select Save Session
As in the File menu of Capture. Name the file as usual, and
choose Open TL (*.tl) in the Save As Type selection box.
Click on Save to save your Session as an Open TL document
and confirm the command by clicking Yes in the confirmation
window. This file will be placed by default in your Session
folder and will not overwrite the original Capture Session file.
Note that the Open TL format will not save your markers.
Import Capture Session Audio Files Directly
Some audio-editing applications (e.g., digital audio workstations,
or DAWs) do not support the Open TL format, which makes the
options somewhat limited when importing sessions created in
other programs. In this case, you must manually import the Audio
Events from your Capture Session into the audio-editing application,
using whatever means possible in that program. Refer to the
documentation of your software for more information on this process.
Note that in some cases, you may have more than one Audio Event on
a given track, as opposed to a single continuous Audio Event, or you
might have audio events that do not have the same start position. In
either case, it is highly recommended that you first export the audio
for each track before attempting to import into an audio-editing
program, as described in the Export Audio Files section of this section.
Be sure to have the Export Session option selected in the Export Audio
File menu as shown, so that the result of the process will be a single
continuous audio file for each track in the session.
Once you have a single, continuous audio file for each track, directly
importing the files into an audio editor is much easier. All that is required
to reconstruct your Capture Session is to align each file at the same
start time.
