Ty for the expanded version - this should be multiple videos. The length alone might be make people not click. Make one for each device. This content is GREAT!

[@techtimewithtimmy]

Yeah, maybe. When I finished recording it I felt like it was probably too long. But I kind of wanted to do it all in one video because creating and downloading the export is the same on all devices, so I would have ended up repeating myself a lot.

I suffered (5-7)% chronic ear damage because of being exposed to an unhealthy amount of high-frequency sound present in this video, but it was worth it.

[@tdwpersonaltraining]

Great stuff Timmy.

[@techtimewithtimmy]

Thank you!

[@vanessap2814]

what if the download folder in pc is not enough, can we possibly download it direct to external drive

[@techtimewithtimmy]

Yes, I cover that at 14:10 in this video.
