To refresh the Library:
m Choose Refresh Library in the Action menu of the Library.
This refreshes both the local library and the .Mac accounts you are connected to.
Sharing Key Commands
You can access shared key command sets in the Key Commands window.
To browse for shared key command:
m Choose Options > Presets, then browse the .Mac or Bonjour folders.
Backing Up Audio Files
The backup functions available in the Audio Bin and Sample Editor create a duplicate
of the selected audio file (or files) in the same storage location as the originals. Backup
files inherit the name of the source file, and are easily identified by the “.dup” file
extension.
To create a backup of one or more selected files in the Audio Bin:
m Choose the Audio File > Backup File(s) command. Click the Duplicate button in the
dialog.
Back up (duplicate) files can be directly added to the Audio Bin (or Arrange), just as you
would with the original audio files.
To create a backup of the selected file in the Sample Editor:
m Choose the Audio File > Create Backup command (or use the corresponding key
command, default: Command-B). Click the Create button in the dialog.
Use this feature before performing a destructive editing operation in the Sample Editor,
as it provides a “fallback” position if the audio processing produces undesirable results.
To restore the backed up file in the Sample Editor:
m Choose the Audio File > Revert to Backup command (or use the corresponding key
command, default: Shift-Command-B). Click the Paste button in the dialog.
Backing Up and Sharing Projects
Project folders help you to keep track of your work: they ensure that all files related to
a project are neatly saved in one location. This makes it easy to back up your projects
and enables easy transfer between computers. This avoids problems such as missing
instruments, audio files, or samples that you need to search for, or reconstruct, in the
studio.
