Figure 477. The Folder Locations section
The Folder Locations section lets you specify default folders for different kinds of SONAR files. The
default locations for all of these file types usually work well. However, if you find that this folder gets
cluttered, changing the locations of the file types won’t hurt anything, as long as you remember
where you put things.
Note: The only folder location you have to be careful with is the Global Audio folder (listed in
Edit > Preferences > File - Audio Data), which SONAR creates in the C:\Cakewalk Projects
folder. SONAR stores all audio data that is associated with project files in this folder. If you move
this folder, SONAR can not find the audio data for projects you have already recorded. To tell
SONAR where you moved the folder, fill in the location in the Global Audio Folder field in Edit >
Preferences > File - Audio Data.
