Session Files Access
Session files can be saved and loaded via several methods: The Modified Session Dialog,
the File menu in the Application Menus, and/or the Sessions Menu.
Session Name
Session names are displayed in the Meter
Bridge at the top of the main Console window
(“My Session” in the screenshot below), below the word SESSIONS within the Settings
Switch, and at the top of the Sessions Manager window. Session names are created when
the file is saved; they can also be renamed via the OS file system.
Modified Session Name
When any Console setting is changed after
the session was saved, an asterisk (*) appears
after the session name, as shown at right. This is a convenient visual reminder that the
session is modified and may need to be saved for future use. To clear the asterisk, save
the session.
SYNC Session Name
When a DAW project containing the Console
Recall plug-in is opened that has the SYNC
function in the plug-in enabled, the session name changes to “- Sync Session -” indicat-
ing that the DAW has sent session settings to Console. See SYNC for related details.
Modified Session Dialog
If the current Console session has been modified and
a new Console session is loaded, a dialog display-
ing the current session name in quotes appears with
option switches (the session name in quotes does
not appear if the session has never been saved). The
behavior of the option switches in this dialog are de-
tailed below.
Important: This dialog does not appear when a Console session is loaded via the
Console Recall plug-in’s SYNC function. See SYNC for details.
Don’t Save – All modifications to the current Console session are discarded and the ses-
sion is loaded (or created, if new session).
Cancel – The current Console session remains active and the attempt to load the Console
session file is canceled.
Save – The current session is saved to disk and the session is loaded. If the session has
never been saved to disk, this switch displays “Save As...” which opens the file save
dialog.
