Dealing with multiple different File Formats with respect to deliverables is pretty much a given - especially if you’re dealing with Music that’s created for Television, Film, and Web. Based on my experience, different Music Production houses may request different formats, (ie: Wav or Aiff) and despite there being better options available - MP3’s are still widely used for Preview File’s.
Although this is a pretty simple task, if you’re just dealing with a basic stereo Mixdown - it can quickly become cumbersome when dealing with Multiple Mix Versions, and / or Stems of all of those multiple mixes.
For me, this task used to include 3 separate sets of exports for a lot of the work that I do when Mixing Music that’s meant to go to Music Production houses. So just imagine - sometimes I would be exporting a Stereo Mix, with up to 5 or 6 variations (edits), then Stems for each of those Mixes! Then it was basically a case of “Rinse & Repeat” for the Aiff Versions, and the MP3 Versions! Definitely NOT fun.
These days, though - I have a much quicker workflow!
In this video, I demonstrate how I typically use the Audio Batch Converter to Render multiple sets of files in different deliverable formats for jobs that require me to do so.
