When you have created a complete song, you may want to mix it down to an audio file to make it playable for other people (who don't use Reason). You can either export the whole song (from the start to the "E" marker), or only the loop (the area between the left and right locator in the sequencer). Proceed as follows:
1. Make sure only the main stereo outputs are used.
The export function will only include audio routed to the stereo outputs.
2. Make sure the Loop/End markers are at the correct positions.
If you want to export the loop, you need to set the left and right locators to encompass the desired area. If you instead want to export the whole song, make sure the End (E) marker is at the desired end position.
If you are using reverb or delay, you may want to adjust the right locator or End marker so that the reverb/delay "tails" are included in the exported file.
3. Check that the song (or loop) plays back properly.
It's especially important that no clipping occurs during playback (see "Audio Out Clipping Indicator" ).
4. Pull down the file menu and select Export Song as Audio File (or Export Loop as Audio File).
5. Specify a name, location and file type (AIFF or Wave) for the audio file, and click Save.
6. Specify a sample rate and bit depth (resolution) for the exported file in the Settings dialog that appears.
The program creates the audio file. Depending on the length of the song/loop, this may take a while, during which a progress dialog is shown.
