Creating a New Bin
To create a new bin from the Project window, do one of the following:
t Select File > New Bin.
t Click the New Bin button in the Project window.
A new (empty) bin opens and is given the name of the project as displayed
in the title bar of the Project window. The new bin opens in the Bins list of
the Project window with the default name highlighted. A corresponding
file is placed in the project folder in the Avid Projects folder, and a backup
copy is placed in the Avid Attic folder.
You can keep the default name of the bin or rename the bin immediately.
For more information, see “Renaming a Bin” on page 48.

title bar of the Project window, and is numbered incrementally.
To change the name of a bin:
