Exporting iMovie clips and not retaining audio effect
I'm using iMovie 10.4.2 on a Mac OS Venura 13.6.9 In iMovie I can apply the small room audio effect but when I export the file, the effect is not applied. Can you help?

Hi
Try deleting/resetting preferences, as that sometimes cures export problems. To delete/reset preferences, open iMovie while holding down the Option and Command keys and select to delete preferences in the box that appears. iMovie will open in a new empty library. Reopen your old library to get back to your projects. (To reopen your old library close iMovie and go to your Movie folder (or wherever you have your old iMovie library stored) and double click on the library's icon. iMovie will open in that library. Now see if you can export and retain the audio effect. Possibly you may need to reboot to set the changes. Deleting preferences is a safe procedure that will not cause data loss or disruption to your project.
Also, sometimes a glitch will occur that is confined to just one project and no others. If deleting preferences does not cure the issue, try creating a new project and see if you can successfully export from there.
