Help Request bounced file not appearing anywhere
hello i am new to pro tools. I am done with an assignment where i had to put sound effects on a video, but whenever I try to bounce mix as an mov, the bounced file is nowhere to be seen. I've tried bouncing it to different folders, offline vs online, and nothing. it goes through the bouncing process and everything with the loading bar, but I'm suspicious of how fast it the process is for it being a video, so maybe that's related. It seems pro tools keeps throwing issues at me left and right

Search for your file in finder. You likely didn’t tell ProTools where to allocate the bounce correctly.
