Your idea

I'd love to be able to select specific measures before exporting my score to an audio file, so that only these measures are exported.

Problem to be solved

Right now, if you want to share a cool chord progression, or a specific part of a piece you're working on, you have to either export the whole score and trim the audio file in an audio software like audacity (which can take a long time for long scores or when there are a lot of instruments), or record your screen or PC audio.

Prior art

Most video editing apps allow you to add in and out markers, and export what's in between. I'm thinking of something like that.
