22.0 Songs
A “song” is essentially a virtual folder within the Project File that stores the mix files displayed in the
Mix Tree. Multiple songs can be saved in a project.
A Project File must be open in order to make and use songs.
In common practice, a separate song can be created for each recording (song) in a music project or
each scene in a film or video project. Each individual recording and its associated mixes are typically
stored as songs within a project. For a music recording project, individual compositions would be
organized as songs and the entire album project would be saved as a project. For film/video projects,
individual scenes could be stored as songs within a project that represents the entire program. This
concept is not enforced, so when working with a concert or other lengthy source material, it might be
desirable to mix multiple compositions or scenes as a single song or whatever method is appropriate.
The Songs tab provides a list of the songs in the current project (Song List) and the means to create
and delete songs.
The Song Title and Timecode Framerate of the current song are always displayed at the top of the
Project window in the associated fields.
