Apple Soundtrack Pro 3 - Manual (Page 114)

You can also open a recently open project by choosing it from the File > Open Recent
menu, or open a project by dragging it onto the Soundtrack Pro icon in the Dock.
You can have multiple projects open in Soundtrack Pro and cut and paste between them,
but you can only play one project at a time. You can open projects created with earlier
versions of Soundtrack and Soundtrack Pro, but you can only save them as multitrack
projects (with the extension .stmp).
At any time while you are working, you can close a multitrack project.
To close a project
µ
Select the project’s tab in the project pane, then choose File > Close Project (or press
Command-W).
Creating a Multitrack Project from Final Cut Pro Clips or
Sequences
A convenient and powerful audio post-production workflow for any film or video project
is sending a Final Cut Pro sequence or clip to a Soundtrack Pro multitrack project. For
example, when the picture edit in a Final Cut Pro sequence is near completion, you simply
choose File > Send To > Soundtrack Pro Multitrack Project. Soundtrack Pro opens a new
multitrack project with the tracks, clips, and edits from the Final Cut Pro sequence,
including the synchronized video.
For information on sending Final Cut Pro sequences and clips to Soundtrack Pro, see
Using Soundtrack Pro with Final Cut Pro .
Setting Project Properties
Each project has a set of project properties that include sample rate, overlap mode,
selection mode, timecode, file management, and music-related properties. You can change
the project properties for a particular project using the multitrack project controls at the
top of the project pane or the Project tab.
Each project property has a default setting. You can also change the default project
properties for new projects in the Project pane of the Preferences window. For information
on setting preferences, see
Setting Soundtrack Pro Preferences .
