Once you have started Ardour, the **Session Setup** window shows up.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can click on **New Session** to create a brand new session, or you
|
||
|
|
can open an existing session using the **Other Sessions** options. For now let's create a fresh session, so click on **New Session**. The window should now look like the screenshot below.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Name your new project and click **Open** .

Avoid using any characters other than letters and numbers when naming your session. Avoid white spaces, accented letters, !@#$%*()+, periods, commas, etc. Use dashes or underscores if you like. For example, instead of "My Great Session!", prefer "My_Great_Session", or "MyGreatSession", or "my-great-session". Instead of "Açaí", write "Acai" (without accented letters), etc. Once you have created your Ardour session, do **not** manually rename any folders or files that belong to the Session.
