Creating Custom Session
Templates
You can create custom session documents
that are pre-configured to the track setups,
mixer setups, window arrangements, and
zoom level memory locations that you use
most frequently. Doing this will save you
the trouble of having to create your studio
setup from scratch every time you start a
new session.
Creating Macintosh Templates
You can create a session template on the
Macintosh by saving a session file as a Sta-
tionery pad document. Once a session is
saved as stationery, it acts as a template
that you can open and then resave as a nor-
mal session.
To create a custom session template:
1 Create a session and arrange the Mix,
Edit, and Transport windows as you like.
You can choose which windows are open
and where they appear on the screen. You
can also define the parameters within these
windows, such as signal routings, inserts
and sends configurations, track views, ruler
settings, and Preference settings.
2 Choose File > Save Session.
3 Name the session and click Save.
4 Close the session.
5 Locate the session file that you just saved.
6 Click once on the file to select it.
7 Choose File > Get Info. A file information
window appears.
8 Click the Stationery Pad check box to
save the file as a template, then close the
information window.
