Page Scrolling

To scroll the Edit window one screen (or “page”) at a time as the playback

cursor moves across the Timeline, enable the Page Scrolling option. To

select this option, choose OPTIONS > SCROLLING > PAGE.

When Page Scrolling is enabled, the playback cursor moves across the Edit

window until it reaches the right edge of the window. Each time the playback

cursor reaches the right edge, the entire contents of the window are scrolled,

one screen at a time, and the playback cursor continues from the left edge of

the Edit window.

Note: When the zoom magnification of the Edit window is too high,

Page Scrolling may not function properly. If you experience

problems, decrease the zoom magnification to enable Page

Scrolling.

Saving, Locating, and Opening Existing Sessions

As with most software applications, Pro Tools provides commands for

saving and opening your files under the File menu. The following sections

describe the options for saving, locating, and opening your session files and

other files related to your Pro Tools projects.

Saving a Session

While working in Pro Tools, it is important to save your work often. When

you save a session using the two commands explained in the following

sections, you are saving only the Pro Tools session file, not its associated

files. (A session’s audio files are written directly to disk, so you don’t have

to save them independently.) Consequently, even very large sessions can be

saved quickly.

Save Command

Saving can be done manually by choosing the Save command from the File

menu. This saves the changes you have made since the last time you saved

and writes the session in its current form over the old version. You cannot

undo the Save command.

Save As Command

Hooray! Your file is uploaded and ready to be published.
