Saving Audio Files with pyro Audio Creator 
Audio Creator has two save commands: 
Save
and 
Save As
Use the 
Save As
command (actually 
File-Save As
) to save your files when you have
finished editing them. This command allows you to create new files that include all
the changes you have made in the Audio Editor, and at the same time allows you to
convert files to different formats for publishing on the web, burning CDs, etc. 
NOTE:
when you save a file, it is usually a good idea to save it under a different
name from the original file. This way you preserve your original file. 
When you want to save your files, you can choose to save them in several different
formats: 
• Wave (.wav file extension)--this is CD format. 
• MP3 (.mp3 file extension). 
• WMA (.wma file extension)--this is Microsoft's file compression format which is 
similar to MP3. 
• Project (.pac file extension)--this option does not create new audio files, it just 
preserves the state of your editing project so that you can open it later, and 
start editing where you left off. 
To Save Files in Wave Format 
This is the format you use if you want to burn a file or files to a CD. When you save
a file in this format, all the audio clips and/or files in your project are saved as one
wave file. 
However
, if you add markers between different files in the Audio Editor,
you get the option to save separate files starting at each marker. 
To Save Files in Wave Format: 
1.
Use the 
File-Save As-Wav
command to open the Save As dialog. 
2.
Navigate to where you want to store the new Wave file or files, and if you are 
only saving one file, and not using markers to separate your saved files (see next 
step), type a name for the new file. 
3.
If you want to use track markers to create separate files during the save process, 
enable the Use Markers As Track Indicators checkbox. Each marker marks the 
start of a new file and 
also names the new file
. Make sure you have a marker at 
the beginning of your project if you want that part of the project to be included in 
the save process. 
4.
Make sure that the Channel Format field is set to Stereo (unless you want a mono 
file), the Sample Rate is set to 44100, and the Bit Depth is 16. 
5.
If you want to add this file or files to the Audio CD Track list, enable the 
Add to 
Audio CD Track List 
checkbox.
NOTE:
if you choose to add files to the Audio CD Track list, copies of the files in 
the correct format for CD burning are automatically created and added to the list. 
You don't have to worry about choosing the correct file format options for CD 
burning. 
6.
Click the 
Save
button. A progress bar appears while your files are saved. Each file 
you save gets the .wav file extension.
