Deleting Unwanted Takes

Post by Antecide » Wed Feb 03, 2010 12:10 am

Is there an easy way to delete unwanted audio takes in version 8? They seem to be taking up a rather large portion of my hard drive.

in your project file there is a folder called "samples"

inside there a folder called "recorded"

delete unwanted audio files from there

So you can only do it manually?

AFAIK it should remove unwanted takes automatically if they are removed from session (and arrange)

Pretty certain it keeps it in the recorded folder
