Open Other
This button allows you to open any project le on your system. This is identical to using
the Open command from the File menu.
Project Files
A project le (extension *.cpr) is the central document in Cubase. A project le contains
references to media data that can be saved in the project folder.
NOTE
We recommend to save les only in the project folder, even though you can save them in any
other location to which you have access.
The project folder contains the project le and the following folders that Cubase automatically
creates when necessary:
●
Audio
●
Edits
●
Images
● Track Pictures
Template Files
Templates can be a good starting point for new projects. Templates are projects where you can
save all settings that you regularly use, such as bus congurations, sample rates, record formats,
basic track layouts, VSTi setups, drum map setups, etc.
The following template types are available from within the Hub:
● Factory templates for specic scenarios. These are listed in the Recording, Scoring,
Production, or Mastering categories.
● The default template. This is listed in the More category.
● Any new user templates that you create and save. These are listed in the More category.
Template projects are not saved in project folders and therefore contain no subfolders and no
media
les.
● To open the location of a specic template, right-click a template in the template list and
select Show in Explorer (Windows only) or Reveal in Finder (macOS only).
Save As Template Dialog
The Save As Template dialog allows you to save projects as templates.
●
To open the Save As Template dialog, select File > Save As Template.
