274 CHAPTER 14 File Menu - Multitrack View Open Session This function launches the Open a Multitrack Session dialog, allowing you to load an existing session (.ses) file, along with all audio files used in the session. Open Session dialog Here are the components of the Open a Multitrack Session dialog: Recent Folders The most recently used folders are displayed here in a drop-down menu. This allows quick access to frequently used folders. Look in Use this drop-down list to navigate through all available drives and folders. File name Here's where you may specify the name of the file you desire to open, if it resides in the current folder. Entering *.extension (such as *.ses) displays all files with that extension in the open folder. Files of type Use this control to filter the display of files in the current folder to a specific type of supported session file, such as *.ses. As you'd expect, selecting the All files (*.*) listing displays all files in the current folder. Show File Information If this item is checked, you'll see all the waveforms referenced by a session in the Component Files list, along with the sampling rate and number of tracks used. Append to Session This command opens an existing session and all of its associated audio files, and begins track placement at the end of the currently open session. For example, if the currently open session has material in tracks 1-4, then using Append to Session... to open another four track session would place the new material into tracks 5-8. The selected session must have the same sample rate and bit resolution as the session to be appended to. The Append a Multitrack Session dialog is virtually identical to the Open a Multitrack Session dialog.
