EXPORTING AUDIO
Posted: Sun Dec 31, 2017 2:38 pm
Hi - over the last six months or so I've been arranging swing numbers for a quartet (tpt altosax tensax and tbn). Upon completion of the arrangement, I send a .pdf to the other three band members. I also export an audio .wav file which, when converted to .mp3, is also sent to the other three quartet members. Until recently, the size of the .wav file has been typically 20MB reducing to say 3MB when converted to .mp3.
I've just finished arranging a number called Polkadots And Moonbeams. So I do the usual File] Export] Audio. The dialogue box tells me that the .wav file size is a massive 386.5MB (duration 38.21). I deleted the divisi staves leaving just four staves. The export audio dialogue still reported a file size of 386.5MB.
Another file (St. Thomas) has a .wav file size of 8.9MB (duration 0.53). Does anyone have any ideas please?
I've tried to attach the above two scores (in .zip and .jpeg) but they are too large.
Regards
David Wright
