Ogg Vorbis Files

Ogg Vorbis is an open source, patent-free audio encoding and streaming technology, offering compressed audio files of small size, but with comparatively high audio quality. Ogg Vorbis files have the extension .ogg.

  • To open the settings for Ogg Vorbis files, select OggVorbis in the File Type pop-up menu.

Quality

Sets the quality for the variable bit rate encoding. This setting determines between which limits the bit rate will vary. The higher the value, the higher the sound quality but also the larger the files.

Export as

Allows you to select a channel mode for the mixdown file:

  • Interleaved

    Allows you to export to an interleaved file.

  • Split Channels

    Allows you to export the 2 channels of a stereo bus or all subchannels of a multi-channel bus as separate mono files.

  • Mono Downmix

    Allows you to downmix all the subchannels of a stereo or surround channel or bus to a single mono file.

    For stereo, the Stereo Pan Law as defined in the Project Setup dialog is applied to avoid clipping.

    For surround, the channels are summed and divided through the number of channels used (in case of a 5.1 channel = (L+R+C+LFE+Ls+Rs)/6).

  • L/R Channels from Surround

    Allows you to export only the left and right subchannels of a multi-channel bus into a stereo file.
