Ardour allows you to create templates that specify the number of tracks
|
||
|
|
and busses, the I/O configuration and other aspects of the session. When
|
||
|
|
creating a new session, you can specify a template and it will be
|
||
|
|
created to match the template settings. To create a template, you will
|
||
|
|
need to be working on an existing session. Make sure that the session is
|
||
|
|
setup to in exactly the way you would like the template to be. Choose
|
||
|
|
<menuchoice> <guimenu>Session</guimenu> <guisubmenu>Save
|
||
|
|
Template</guisubmenu> </menuchoice>.

To open the Save Template dialog enter a name for the template and click
|
||
|
|
<guibutton>Save</guibutton> or
|
||
|
|
<keycombo><keycap>Ctrl</keycap><keycap>S</keycap></keycombo> to store
|
||
|
|
the template using the current session configuration. Templates are
|
||
|
|
basically session files without any audio data references. They are
|
||
|
|
stored in your <filename>.ardour</filename> folder.

<guibutton>Use template</guibutton> button, and then click on the name
