Save complete VIP in
The complete virtual project with all wave files that belong to it will be saved in the specified
folder. This function is useful, for example, for making backups on a different drive.
Keep project subdirectories: If you have already created subdirectories in your project
directory, e.g. to sort samples, then these will also be copied into the new directory.
Copy unfreeze data: Copies all unfreeze data in the VIP into the new directory.
Take along the files used by the effects: Copy the files used by effects like room
simulator or the vocoder into the new directory.
Only copy samples used in VIP: Only the sections of wave projects that are actually used
by objects in the VIP are copied.
This function can save you a lot of disc space. However, you have to consider that the
objects in the newly saved project can be only shortened, not made longer. This is
because all audio data outside the project limits is not copied with it, and therefore, cannot
be used.
For this reason, you can define a security area in samples. This sample count will be left as
additional space in front and at the end of the corresponding object limits to leave a
reserve, in case the object should be altered using a fade in/out. A value of 22050 sample,
corresponding to 500 ms with a 44.1 kHz sample rate is preset.
Save project as EDL
The active virtual project will be saved as an edit list in EDL text format. This edit list is a
text file containing information about used .WAV files, video files, object borders, object
volumes, markers, volumes & panorama curves.
This option effectively lets you save Samplitude projects into an exchange format that
allows a project to be incorporated into a different sequencer or video editing program. The
EDLs can be converted together with the audio files into other formats using a conversion
program like EDL ConvertPro.
Save project as template
Using this option the current project can be saved as a project template. The template will
save all project-based settings like grid form, track number, etc., but not the used objects
or wave files. Templates can be loaded when creating new multi-track projects (File menu
> New virtual project).
Burn project backup on CD/DVD
You can use this menu point to burn an entire project backup onto multiple CDs or DVDs.
The Samplitude burner program MXCDR opens.
