User Manual

1. From the File menu, choose Save.
Note: The first time you save a project, the Save As dialog appears. In subsequent saves, the dialog is bypassed,
your existing file name is retained, and your project is updated to include any implemented changes.
2. Using the Save in drop-down list, locate the folder where you want to save the project.
3. In the File Name box, enter a name for the file.
4. Click the Save button.
Automatically saving a project
CD Architect software automatically saves a backup copy of your project every five minutes. If your system crashes,
you will be prompted to open the backup file the next time you start the application.
Backup files are saved in the location specified in the
Temporary files folder box on the General tab of the
Preferences dialog. Files are saved with the .autosave.cdp extension and are deleted when you close the application.
If you prefer not to autosave your project, clear the Enable autosave check box.
Renaming a project (using Save As)
After you have been working with your project, you may use the Save As command in the File menu to save a copy
of a project with a new name. This is useful for backing up different versions of a project.
Rendering a CD image file
An image file is essentially a wave file with volume, crossfades, effects, mixes, and track information embedded.
Burning an image file will reduce the risk of buffer underruns (especially if you have a complex project or are using a
slow computer) since no audio processing is required.
