Reclaim Space
The
RECLAIM SPACE
function frees up disk space by deleting “orphaned” audio files that are no longer
referenced by any RADAR
24 project play list. There is also an additional option that allows you to keep or
delete any audio files that are referenced in the current undo lists.
RADAR
24 also has an
AUTO RECLAIM
feature. This feature differs from
RECLAIM SPACE
in that it only frees up
orphaned files in a particular project. In other words it will not delete any audio files that were previously
shared between projects.
RECLAIM SPACE
is a global function that will examine
all
projects and delete any audio
files that are no longer in use for any reason.
AUTO RECLAIM
works automatically in the background to ensure
the most efficient use of disk space. If you wish it can be disabled in the
MAIN / PREFS MENU /
AUTO RECLAIM
dialog.

1. Use
the
MENU/PREV
, arrow keys and

ENTER
