thanks for the replies
wonde why it's not simpler like an option on the start screen
well look at it this way, you can "Pin" your favorites to the start menu.
The little circle next to the project name in start menu has options.
I use this for projects I work on continuous and/or more frequently.
I think the new feature (Start screen appears after closing project) is a huge time bonus.
Didn't know how helpful that would be till they added that in.
Mike, here is a bonus on how to keep things tidy and neat.
Best practices for organizing Project data This varies a little bit depending on if you use more Midi or Audio in your projects but it still apples to all users really. 1- Bounce all your audio clips (fragments of clips in the same track) using the
"Bounce to clips" feature.
this will take your 600MB track and turn it in to a more consolidated 50MB's. Do this with all your Audio tracks.
And do the same with your midi tracks.
2- Once you have Bounced individual tracks save the project.
Now go to Utilities / Clean Audio folder. Run the Clean Audio folder tool to delete unused stray files that are simply wasting space.
3- Depending on the amount of Audio files in your project (Example: 25) your project folders will go from 1.5GB's to 400MB's. Not only that but all those little clips in your Project folder (all 800 of them) are now consolidated in to 25 neat Audio files making your Projects much more manageable and easier to read what each file actually is.
