# Exporting from duet
## Before you start
This lesson requires a songfile with two tracks ready. You can either prepare it yourself for practice or download the files from here:
{% file src="/files/6O15WyGPPehz6pwsqj68" %}
## Creating a single-player txt file
### Rename txt file with duet version
Before we start, let's rename our file which contains two tracks by adding suffix to the txt name. Usually `Artist - Title.txt` filename is reserved for single-player version. Since all of our song versions will reuse the same mp3 file, it makes sense to place them all in the same directory, but to do so, we need different filenames for all versions.
Just rename the txt file in your operating system by adding \[DUET] suffix:
After it's done, open the \[DUET] file in Karedi.
### Adding temporary third track
All of the changes from now on will be temporary. If you have any unsaved changes at this point, it will be a good idea to save them.
Let's add a new temporary track for singleplayer version and call it *Singleplayer* for clarity:
### Copy all notes from first and second track onto the third one
Let's first copy all female notes. Click on the first track to select it, click on the main editor to make sure the focus is there and press `ctrl + shift + a` to select all notes.
Press `ctrl + c` to copy them. Press `Tab` twice to reactivate third track. Once it's active just press `ctrl + v` to paste the notes.
{% hint style="info" %}
Do not click on the main editor after switching back to third track. By clicking you will move the time marker and the notes will be pasted in a different spot than they originally were on the first track.
{% endhint %}
Let's now do the same with male track.
Now we have both male and female parts on one track.
### Export single-player track
Let's export the third track to a separate txt file so that we can comfortably work on it. Name the file `David Amber - Second Time Around.txt` as previously discussed.
You should now have 4 txt files:
### Close the duet without saving
Either remove the third track before saving changes or just close the file without saving if you are sure no valuable change will be lost.
After all our duet-version does not need a third track.
## Shortcuts summary:
In this lessons we have learned/reviewed the following shortcuts:
* select all track notes: `ctrl + shift + a`
* switch to next track: `tab`
* copy selected notes: `ctrl + c`
* paste selected notes: `ctrl + v`
## What's next
In the next lesson we will learn how to clean up our exported single-player file, in particular how to deal with overlapping parts.
