Sometimes it's helpful to get audio out of Render to play it on a different device or send it over Whatsapp or another method. Here is how you can export audio out of Render. 


  1. After you log in to your user, click on the 3-dot menu and choose "Section Status."
  2. Search for the Section(s) in its current stage and substage. 
  3. Once you see the Section you want to export, click/tap the check box and then click/tap the "Export Checked" button near the top of the screen. 
  4. A Windows Explorer window will appear. Choose the location on your computer and then click on the "Select Folder" button. This will create a zipped file at that location. The zip file will contain all the audio associated with that Section including the draft, back translations, etc.


The audio files were exported to the file folder you selected on your computer. The file name is saved as this name format:

  • Receptor language (example: French)
  • Section number (examples: 1 and 3)
  • Scope name (example: Luke)
  • Chapter number (example: 1)
  • Verse numbers (examples: 1-4 and 26-30)
  • Stage at which it was exported (examples: Peer Check, Consultant Check)
  • Substage (e.g. SBT for Segment Back Translate)
  • File type (example: .wav)


The audio file type .wav can be played on any computer, app or device that can play other audio (mp3) files.
