This includes fixing em-dashes, badly spaced colons, various
misspellings, removal of spurious {% %} constructs, conversion of <br />
to <br> (still too many <br>s kicking around), and initial light cleanup
of a few sections that caught my eye.

The <dfn>Session</dfn> is the fundamental document type that is created and
|
|
modified by the Ardour workstation. A Session is a folder on your computer
|
|
filesystem that contains all the items that pertain to a particular project
|
|
or "recording/editing/mixing session".
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The Session folder includes these files and folders:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><code><em>session_name</em>.ardour</code> the main session snapshot</li>
|
|
<li><code>*.ardour</code>, any additional snapshots </li>
|
|
<li><code><em>session_name</em>.ardour.bak</code>, the auto-backup snapshot</li>
|
|
<li><code><em>session_name</em>.history</code>, the undo history for the session </li>
|
|
<li><code>instant.xml</code>, which records the last-used zoom scale and other metadata</li>
|
|
<li><code>interchange/</code>, a folder which holds your raw audio and MIDI
|
|
files (whether imported or recorded)</li>
|
|
<li><code>export/</code>, a folder which contains any files created by the
|
|
<kbd class="menu">Session > Export</kbd> function</li>
|
|
<li><code>peaks/</code>, a folder which contains waveform renderings of
|
|
all audio files in the session</li>
|
|
<li><code>analysis/</code>, a folder which contains transient and pitch
|
|
information of each audio file that has been analysed</li>
|
|
<li><code>dead sounds/</code>, a folder which contains sound files which
|
|
Ardour has detected are no longer used in the session (during a <kbd
|
|
class="menu">Session > Clean-up > Clean-up Unused Sources</kbd>
|
|
operation, will be purged by <kbd class="menu">Flush Waste Basket</kbd>)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>
|
|
A session combines some setup information (such as audio and MIDI routing,
|
|
musical tempo & meter, timecode synchronization, etc.) with one or more
|
|
Tracks and Buses, and all the Regions and Plug-Ins they contain.
