Uncompressed bounce options in Logic Pro for Mac

When you select Uncompressed in the Destination area of the Bounce dialog, the following options are available:

Figure. Uncompressed options in the Bounce dialog.
  • File Type pop-up menu: Choose the uncompressed file type (AIFF, WAVE, or CAF). Uncompressed files can be automatically added to the Project Audio Browser by selecting the Add to Project checkbox.

  • Bit Depth pop-up menu: Define the bit depth of the bounce file. The options range from 8-bit to 32-bit float.

  • Sample Rate pop-up menu: Choose the sample rate for your bounce file. Options range from 11.025 to 192 kHz, including the three most commonly used sample rates: 44.1 (CD-DA), 48 (DAT), and 96 (DVD).

  • Format pop-up menu: Choose a format:

    • Split: Create a separate audio file for the left and right channels of a stereo mix or a separate audio file for each channel of a surround mix. Channel indicators are added to the filenames. To customize the indicators, see Bounce Extensions settings.

      Note: Choosing Split turns off Burn to CD/DVD, if it’s chosen in the Destination area.

    • Interleaved: Create a single audio file, which contains the left and right channel of a stereo mix or all the channels of a surround mix.

  • Dithering pop-up menu: Dithering is recommended when bouncing 24-bit recordings into 16-bit files. For details on dithering options, see About dithering algorithms.

  • Surround Bounce checkbox: Select this checkbox to bounce all outputs in the project surround format (File > Project Settings > Audio > Surround Format).

    All surround outputs are bounced simultaneously, regardless of which output channel’s Bounce button is clicked (or if the Bounce window was opened by choosing File > Bounce).

    The Logic Pro > Settings > Audio > I/O Assignments pane gives you access to the surround settings.

    • You set the stereo and surround output formats in the Output pane.

    • The Bounce Extensions pane displays the extensions that are added to the filenames resulting from a stereo or surround bounce. Select the various fields to edit the extensions.

    • You set the stereo and surround input formats in the Input pane.

    Note: Selecting the Surround Bounce option deselects the MP3, M4A: AAC, and Burn checkboxes in the Destination pane if they’re selected.

  • Add to Project checkbox: Adds the bounced uncompressed file to the Project Audio Browser.

  • Add to Apple Music Library checkbox: Select this checkbox if you want to add the uncompressed file to your Apple Music library.

  • Export as Spatial Audio button: Opens a dialog with various options to export the project to a Dolby Atmos master file. See Export ADM BWF files.

    Note: The button is only visible in a Spatial Audio with Dolby Atmos project.
