Tutorial 1 – Creating, playing, and saving projects
Saving project files
Saving project files
SONAR offers you many options for saving your work. To investigate these options, click on the
File
menu and choose
Save As
. This opens the
Save As
dialog box. Before doing anything in this
window, the first thing you should do is select
Project Files
in the
Go to Folder
list. Even if it already
says
Project Files
, click it anyway.
You will notice this window looks very familiar to the
Open
dialog box we looked at earlier in this
tutorial. The
Save As
dialog box navigates files much in the same way as Windows does. If you
would like to read the finer points and in-depth information about using this window, click the
Help
button. For this exercise, we are going to look at the different types of project files you can save with
SONAR.
Take a look at the drop-down list labeled
Save as type
. Click the
Save as type
arrow to see a list of
supported file formats. Let’s look at these different files formats now:
•
Normal.
This is the first option listed and the most common format used for saving project files.
Choosing this will create a Cakewalk Project file with the .cwp file extension. It is important to
remember that Cakewalk Project files
do not
actually store any audio data, but rather reference
audio files from where they are saved on your computer’s hard drive. You can choose where the
audio files are stored by using the
Audio Path
field in the
Save As
dialog box.
•
Template.
Template files are used as a starting point for new projects. Templates can store
layout information about your project, such as how many audio and MIDI tracks there are and
