Export & Delivery

Export projects in multiple formats, optimize for platforms, deliver to clients, and integrate with cloud storage

Overview

Wubble's export and delivery system provides comprehensive tools for getting your audio out of Wubble and into the hands of clients, platforms, and collaborators. From simple downloads to automated cloud delivery, Wubble handles the technical details so you can focus on creative work.

Export in any audio format with platform-specific optimization, batch process multiple projects, maintain consistent quality standards, and deliver through multiple channels—all while preserving metadata, version history, and project organization.

Platform-specific optimization (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Podcast)
Automatic loudness normalization to industry standards
Batch export folders with structure preservation
Cloud storage integration (Dropbox, Google Drive, S3)

Export Formats

Choose the right audio format for your delivery requirements. Different formats optimize for quality, file size, compatibility, or specific platform needs.

🎵 WAV (Uncompressed)

Lossless, uncompressed audio. Maximum quality with no degradation. Large file sizes. Industry standard for mastering, archival, and professional delivery. Supports up to 32-bit depth and 192kHz sample rate.

Best For: Masters, Archives, Professional DeliveryFile Size: Largest

🎵 FLAC (Lossless Compressed)

Lossless compression reduces file size by ~50% with zero quality loss. Perfect balance of quality and efficiency. Supports metadata and cover art. Compatible with most professional software.

Best For: High-Quality Delivery, ArchivalFile Size: Medium-Large

🎵 MP3 (Lossy Compressed)

Universal compatibility. Variable bitrate (128-320 kbps). 320kbps is near-transparent for most content. Small file sizes perfect for web, streaming, and client review. Most widely supported format.

Best For: Web, Streaming, Client ReviewFile Size: Small

🎵 AAC (Advanced Audio Coding)

Better quality than MP3 at same bitrate. Preferred by Apple, YouTube, and many streaming platforms. Excellent for voice content. 256kbps AAC ≈ 320kbps MP3 quality.

Best For: Apple Platforms, YouTube, PodcastsFile Size: Small

🎵 OGG Vorbis

Open-source alternative to MP3/AAC. Better quality at lower bitrates. Used by gaming platforms (Steam, Unity), web audio, and open-source projects. Smaller than MP3 at equivalent quality.

Best For: Gaming, Web Audio, Open-SourceFile Size: Very Small

Platform Optimization

Wubble automatically applies technical specifications required by different platforms when you export with platform targeting enabled. Ensures your audio meets standards and sounds optimal.

Instagram & Instagram Reels

Target: -14 LUFS | Format: MP3 320kbps or AAC 256kbps | Duration: 15-90 seconds | Mobile-optimized frequency balance | Metadata stripped for privacy

TikTok

Target: -14 LUFS | Format: AAC 256kbps | Duration: 15-180 seconds | High-frequency emphasis for phone speakers | Compression for consistency

YouTube

Podcasts

Target: -16 to -19 LUFS | Format: MP3 128-192kbps | Speech-optimized EQ | Mono or stereo | Reduced file size | ID3 tags with show/episode metadata

Spotify & Apple Music

Radio & Broadcast

Target: -23 LUFS (EBU R128) | Format: Broadcast WAV | True peak < -1dBTP | Precise timing | Professional metadata | Compliance with broadcast standards

Batch Export

Export multiple projects or entire folders at once. Perfect for delivering campaign packages, archiving completed work, or preparing content libraries for distribution.

Folder Structure Preservation

When exporting folders, Wubble maintains your folder hierarchy in the output ZIP. Subfolders become directories, organization is preserved. Makes client delivery organized and professional.

Consistent Naming Convention

Batch exports apply consistent file naming: project name, version label, format, date. Configurable patterns ensure files are organized and identifiable.

Multi-Format Batch Export

Export the same projects in multiple formats simultaneously. One operation produces WAV masters, MP3 references, and platform-specific versions. Efficient for diverse delivery needs.

Progress Tracking

Large batch exports show real-time progress. See which files are processing, completed, or failed. Pause and resume if needed. Receive notification when complete.

Cloud Storage Integration

Export directly to cloud storage services or share via email without manual downloads and uploads. Streamline delivery workflows and maintain organized cloud archives.

Dropbox Integration

Export directly to Dropbox folders. Specify destination paths, share links automatically generated. Perfect for client file requests and team collaboration.

Google Drive

Send files to Google Drive folders. Maintain folder structures, set permissions, notify recipients. Integrates with G Suite for business workflows.

Amazon S3

Export to S3 buckets for professional hosting, CDN distribution, or archival storage. Configure bucket policies, access control, and lifecycle rules.

Email Delivery

Send projects via email with customizable messages. Files delivered as attachments (small files) or download links (large files). Track opens and downloads.

Export Settings

Fine-tune export parameters for specific needs. Balance quality, file size, and compatibility based on delivery requirements.

Sample Rate

44.1kHz: CD quality, standard for music | 48kHz: Video standard, slight quality improvement | 96kHz: High-res audio, archival | 192kHz: Maximum quality, large files

Bit Depth

16-bit: Standard quality, CD audio | 24-bit: Professional standard, better dynamic range | 32-bit float: Maximum headroom, no clipping possible

MP3/AAC Bitrate

128kbps: Acceptable for voice, small files | 192kbps: Good quality music | 256kbps: High quality | 320kbps: Near-transparent, recommended for music

Loudness Normalization

Automatically normalize to target LUFS. Prevents volume inconsistencies across projects. Configurable targets for different platforms. Optional true peak limiting to prevent clipping.

Metadata Embedding

Include ID3 tags (MP3), Vorbis comments (OGG), or BWF metadata (WAV): title, artist, album, date, copyright, ISRC codes. Embed cover art up to 1000x1000px.

Dithering (for Bit Depth Reduction)

When converting from 24-bit to 16-bit, apply dithering to reduce quantization artifacts. Wubble uses industry-standard TPDFdithering for optimal results.

Best Practices

Export Masters in Lossless Formats

Always keep WAV or FLAC masters of final versions. Generate lossy formats (MP3, AAC) from masters as needed. Never compress and uncompress repeatedly.

Use Platform Presets When Available

Platform-optimized exports ensure technical compliance and optimal sound. Unless you have specific requirements, use presets rather than manual settings.

Test Exports Before Mass Delivery

Export and test single file first, especially for batch operations. Verify format, quality, metadata, and file size meet expectations before exporting hundreds of files.

Provide Multiple Formats for Clients

Deliver both WAV (master) and MP3 (reference) to clients. Master for final use, MP3 for easy review. Reduces back-and-forth format requests.

Include Comprehensive Metadata

Embedded metadata ensures files remain identifiable even after downloads, transfers, and re-organization. Include copyright, contact info, and project details.

Use Clear File Naming

Name exported files descriptively: "ProjectName-ClientName-Final-Master.wav". Include version, date, or platform if relevant. Makes file management easier for everyone.

Archive Exports with Projects

Keep records of what you delivered and when. Export history in Wubble tracks this, but also maintain offline archives of critical deliverables.

Consider Target Playback System

Export settings should match intended playback: high bitrate for studio playback, moderate for mobile, voice-optimized for podcasts. One size doesn't fit all.

Verify Loudness Standards

Double-check loudness targets match platform requirements. Incorrect loudness causes platforms to apply automatic normalization, potentially degrading quality.

Automate Routine Exports

For recurring deliveries (weekly podcast, daily content), use API automation or scheduled exports. Saves time and ensures consistency.
