Saving a Session
You should save regularly while working on
your session to ensure that your work is pre-
served on your hard drive.
Saving the Session File
The Save command saves the changes you have
made to your session and writes them over the
previously saved version of the session file. The
Save
command cannot be undone.
To save a session:
„
Choose File > Save .
Revert to Saved Command
If you have made changes to a session since you
last saved it, you can discard those changes and
revert to its previously saved state.
To revert to the last saved version of a session:
„
Choose
File > Revert to Saved
.
Saving the Session File with a New
Name
To save a copy of the current session with a new
name or to a different hard drive location, use
the
Save As command. The Save As command
closes the current session and lets you keep
working on the renamed copy. This is useful if
you are experimenting and want to save succes-
sive versions of the session.
By working this way, you can quickly retrace
your steps if you want to go back to an earlier
version of your session. The
Save As command
saves a new version of the session file only, and
does not duplicate versions of the audio or fade
files.
To save a session with a new name:
1
Choose
File > Save As
.
2
Type a new name for your session.
3
Click
Save
.
The renamed session file is saved in the session
folder along with the original session (unless
you specify a different destination). Any new au-
dio files that you record in your renamed session
will be placed into the same Audio Files folder
that was created for your original session.
If you have enabled the Operation prefer-
ence for Auto Backup, you can also open up
a backup copy of your session. This feature
lets you specify the total number of incre-
mental backups that are kept and how often
the session is saved. See “Auto Backup Sec-
tion” on page 85.
