Record Folder block
The far right of the Session Transport bar houses the Record Folders control interface. Here you can assign
destination folders for Session captures. If you have “New Folder per Take” selected in your Recording
Preferences, every Take will be recorded in its own folder nested within this Record Folder.

The Record Folder
Upon first launch of the MIOConsole3d, a default Record Folder called “Metric Halo Session” will
be created in the Music folder of your home directory.
Holding the mouse cursor over the folder name will pop up a tooltip revealing the full file system
path to that Record Folder:

This locator tooltip is always available for any folder listed in the Record Folder interface, even if the
folder is not currently visible to the Host computer.
Clicking on the name of the current Record folder will open a folder navigation window focused
on your Record Folder. From here you can designate a different folder for your recordings or cre-
ate a new Record Folder in any location you choose. This function is also found in the menu bar
“Recording” menu:

Record Mirror Folders
Session also supports simultaneous recording to multiple additional record folders, called “Record
Mirror Folders”. Record Mirror Folders are also created from the menu bar “Recording” menu, as
shown above.
Mirrors simultaneously capture the same data as the main Record Folder - every Take folder, every
channel, every literal bit, just in a different location.
Mirror folders can be located on any volume visible to your Host computer, generally secondary
internal drives or external USB3 or Thunderbolt hard drives.
