Stripping out audio from PTE project

[smokinggoldfish]

I like the ability to manage audio tracks and clips within PTE. It makes the production much smoother and quicker if you don't have to go back and forth to a sound editor like Audacity. But sometimes it would be useful to strip out the whole audio in order to reduce noise, equalise, add effects, adjust stereo balance etc. As far as I can see this is not possible at present. After processing the audio content could be simply put back into the project, replacing the original.

So my request is to be able to do that.

Thanks jt, in fact I have used this method, but didn't like it for two reasons:

It is slow to create the video file. But your idea to reduce the pixels to a tiny amount solves that nicely!

I guess a lot of to and fro processing of the audio degrades the quality. E.g. if you have taken care to use mostly .wav files which then get compressed. But maybe this is not a problem in practice.....

I'll try it again with the tiny video size trick you suggest.

Future PicturesToExe 9 can export whole soundtrack to MP3 file. I added this command to the menu.

Igor,

Would it be too difficult to export to a wav file?

Dave,

OK, no problem

Thanks jt, the tiny resolution trick works well.

And good to see that it will be even simpler in the next release!

I agree it would be good to be able to extract in wav format too.

Future version:

Presumably the dropdown will offer WAV or MP3.

Yes, WAV or MP3.
