Minimizing Files
You can minimize the audio files according to the size of the audio clips referenced in the project.
The files that are produced using this option only contain the audio file portions that are actually
used in the project.
This can significantly reduce the size of the project if large portions of the audio files are unused.
Therefore, the option is useful for archiving purposes after you have completed a project.
IMPORTANT
This operation will permanently change the selected audio files in the Pool. This cannot be
undone. If you only want to create the minimized audio files as a copy, leaving the original
project untouched, you can use the Back up Project option.
NOTE
Minimizing files clears the entire edit history.
PROCEDURE
1. In the Pool window, select the files that you want to minimize.
2. Select Media> Minimize File.
3. Click Minimize.
After the minimizing is finished, the file references in the stored project have become
invalid.
4. Do one of the following:
To save the updated project, click Save Now.
To proceed with the unsaved project, click Later.
RESULT
Only the audio portions that are actually used in the project remain in the corresponding audio
files in the Pool Record folder.
