Setting Default Locations for Saving Media Files
During the course of a large sound editing project, you may generate numerous project
files, clips, render files, and audio recordings. Soundtrack Pro helps you manage all this
media by saving the files to default scratch locations. You can change the scratch locations
using Soundtrack Pro preferences.
Edited Media Location
When Soundtrack Pro saves audio file projects created automatically in the multitrack
Timeline, the default location for those files is /Users/username/Documents/Soundtrack Pro
Documents/Edited Media/Multitrack Project Name/.
To change the edited media location
Do one of the following:
µ
Choose Soundtrack Pro > Preferences > General, then click Choose to enter a new location.
µ
In the Project tab, choose one of the following in the Create Media section:
• In Edited Media (from Preferences)
• In Media folder with project
Scratch Location
When Soundtrack Pro automatically creates audio file projects for edited media in the
multitrack Timeline, the default location for those files is
/Users/username/Documents/Soundtrack Pro Documents/Temporary Files/. These files
are moved to the Edited Media Location when the multitrack project is saved.
