File handling in the Audio Montage
Saving the Montage
You save the Montage using the Save or Save As commands on the File
menu. Audio Montage files have the extension “.mon”.
A couple of things to note:
• The Montage files do not contain any audio data in themselves.
Rather, they contain references to audio files. This means that you must make sure not to
delete, move or rename any audio files referenced by Montages.
• You can use the Rename dialog to rename (and/or move) audio files and
automatically update all clip references.
See “Renaming files and documents (Rename)” on page 121.
• If the Audio Montage contains clips that refer to untitled audio files, you will
be asked to save these audio files before you can save the Montage.
• WaveLab can save Montages automatically.
See “Backing up Montages” on page 503.
• You can store the current settings in the Master Section as part of the Mon-
tage, by selecting “Store current Master Section’s configuration” from the
Edit view : Special menu.
To apply the settings stored in a Montage to the Master Section, select “Restore Master
Section’s configuration”.
There are two alternative ways to store/recall a Master Section preset for
a Montage:
• [Ctrl]-click the “M” button in the title bar.
The button is now green to indicate that the current Master Section configuration is stored
with the Montage. If you later load this Montage, click the green M button to restore the
Master Section preset.
• You can right-click the Master Section Presets button and select “Save in
audio window” to store a preset.
To recall this preset later, simply right-click the Presets button again and select “Restore
from audio window”.
