  I have faced with some challenge regarding my audit. I need to save my audit events on a file, but file should be in a readable format ( like txt) which will allow to analyze it out of SSMS. XXXXX.sqlaudit format does not allow this. Maybe you know options that will help to export audit events` file to readable format ? Thanks in advance.

  You could setup your audit to write to the Windows event log. Then the audits could get written out to a CSV or xml file for further processing.
