File menu

This allows you to apply comprehensive settings for creating, managing, loading and

saving projects.

New Virtual Project (VIP)

Keyboard shortcut: E

A new Virtual Project is created and immediately presented with the specified number of

tracks in the open arranger.

Name: Enter the name for the new VIP.

File path: Select the folder for saving the project.

Create new project subdirectory: A subdirectory bearing the name of the project is

automatically created in the directory selected in "File path".

Project template: Choose between previously selected project templates in this list field.

These presets contain project settings such as track number, device assignments, etc.

Create project templates with "File -> Save project as template (view page 380)"

Mixer setup: Select a preset mixer setup here. Mixer setups define the number and kind of

tracks/buses as well as the routing of inputs/outputs and effects.

To create a Surround project, define the Surround setup first. The list field located below,

i.e. "Surround setup", is activated for selecting a number of Surround formats.

Project options: All settings adjustments made here are valid for every newly-created

virtual project. They will be saved in a separate VIP(Templates\Template.VIP). The

Template.VIP file can also be edited directly to define additional settings for all projects:
