Important Notes
Notes can only be exported in Microsoft Word (.docx) and TXT formats.
Exported notes are timestamped per section. If you need to reference specific parts of the audio, you can manually add timestamps by highlighting a word or phrase in Sonix to view the exact timestamp, then inserting it into your note before exporting.

Export the file
Click on the Export button.
