Working With Volume Databases
358
Volume databases are automatically mounted when Cubase is launched. They are
shown in the Define Locations section and their data can be viewed and edited in
the Results list.
Removing a Volume Database
If you have worked on another computer using an external hard disk and return to
your own computer and connect the external device again as part of your system
setup, you do not need a separate volume database for it any more. Any data on this
drive can then be included in the local database file again, by removing the extra
database file.
PROCEDURE
In the Define Locations section, right-click the volume database and select
Remove Volume Database
RESULT
The metadata is integrated in the local MediaBay database file and the volume
database file is deleted.
NOTE
If the drive contains a large amount of data, this process may take a while.
Mounting and Unmounting Volume Databases
Volume databases that are made available while Cubase is running must be
mounted manually.
To mount a volume database manually, right-click the external storage
medium, drive, or partition of your computer system that you want to mount
and select Mount Volume Database.
To unmount a volume database, right-click it and select Unmount Volume
Database.
