Duplicating a Project (save as?)
I am currently using Pro Tools first and have about a dozen offline projects currently. I have one project that I am working on that I want to experiment going in a different direction with so basically I need to duplicate it and then mess around with the copy.
Is there a way to do that? In audacity which I used to use you would just go FILE, Save AS and give it a new name. Same in Word, Excel etc. Thanks. |

Is it not the same procedure for both versions? Assuming there is a procedure.

Almost every user in this forum section does not use Pro Tools First, will likely have no idea what First does now with local Projects caching etc. A few users here might use Project/collaboration with Standard/Ultimate but the place you will likely get best help is the First forum. |

And Pro Tools standard and Ultimate have Save As... and Save Copy In... (and it's Save Copy In that is the really useful one). Both well described in the Pro Tools Reference Guide. I have no idea what Pro Tools First provides.

Re: Duplicating a Project (save as?)
I was wondering where save as or duplicate session was too. Also it’s annoying that your actual session files are placed in an predetermined folder and can’t be moved. Things like this make upgrading to a $29 month subscription not worth it. Pro Tools ain’t that special. I left in 2006 to move to Ableton Live and I wanted to revisit some old Pro Tools songs. Better of just using my old G4 Mac and Pro Tools 5.1.

Re: Duplicating a Project (save as?)
Hi everyone !
Got the exact same problem and think it's a shame that this possibility still not exists, even in a First version of pro Tools. All creative application need to allow to try many version of a song. Same thing, if we want to initialize our songs with the same effects on tracks. Need to memorize parameters and apply 'em on tracks of the news songs.

A track preset will remember both the plug-in and its settings. So, you can have a track in one project and create a track preset from it. Then when you create a new project, just add a new track using your preset and it will be exactly like it is in the other project. Give it a try. |
