How to get a WAV out of a Pro Tools project

You need the audio out of a Pro Tools session (stems for a mixer, a bounce for another DAW), and no Pro Tools to open it with. The recordings are already in the session folder, in the Audio Files beside the .ptx; the session says where each clip sits and how loud. That is enough to write them out, as a mix or as stems.

  1. Add the session folder: A session is a packed binary, read on our server. No account is needed to open it. Choose the session folder, or drop a zip of it, so the Audio Files folder comes too: that is where the sound is.
  2. It renders by itself: The studio opens on the session and starts the WAV straight away: every clip from the Audio Files folder at its position, through its track's fader and pan, mixed and written in your browser at 24-bit.
  3. Download the WAV: One file of the whole session lands in your downloads, no account needed. For stems, 32-bit float or a loop range, use File → Export audio….

Questions about the Pro Tools session to WAV converter?

We have answers.

Can I convert a .ptx to WAV without Pro Tools?

Yes, add the session folder here. The session's recordings come out at its faders, as a mix or as stems. Plugins and automation do not; they only run inside Pro Tools.

Do I need an account?

No. The session is read on our server and the WAV is written in your browser, signed out.

Can I get stems?

Yes: File → Export audio… → Stems writes every track as its own WAV in a zip, all lined up from the session's zero.

What bit depth and sample rate is the WAV?

The WAV that renders by itself is 24-bit; File → Export audio… offers 16-bit, 24-bit or 32-bit float at 44.1 or 48 kHz.

What about MIDI and instrument tracks?

They come across by name with no notes in them, so nothing plays them. Export MIDI from Pro Tools and take the .mid to MIDI to audio if you need those parts.

  • Audio-first, and what that leaves out

    A Pro Tools session is mostly recordings: the .ptx arranges clips that live in the Audio Files folder beside it. Those play from your copy, at their positions, through each track's fader and pan: the session's own recordings summed at the session's own levels, and nothing else. No insert chain, no automation pass, no aux send, no clip effects. MIDI and instrument tracks come across by name, with no notes inside, so nothing plays them and they are not in the file. A session dropped without its folder has nothing to play at all, and the studio asks for the folder.

  • Stems, depth, and what each file holds

    File → Export audio… → Stems writes one WAV per track in a zip, every file starting at the session's zero so they drop back into line in any DAW. Each stem carries its clips at their positions, with the track's gain and pan; the mix adds them up through the master. The WAV that renders by itself is 24-bit; the export writes 16-bit, 24-bit or 32-bit float, at 44.1 or 48 kHz. What is not in any of them: inserts, sends, automation and clip effects: the audio the session holds, not what Pro Tools does to it.
