Preserving Folder Hierarchy
when Saving a Copy of a
Session

Pro Tools 7.2 lets you preserve the relative ar-
rangement of a session’s audio files that are
stored on separate drives or in different folders
when saving a copy of a session.

When the Preserve Folder Hierarchy option is

selected, the main folder for the session copy
will include subfolders for each drive or folder in
the original session. The destination subfolders
use the same names as the source drives and
folders.

When the Preserve Folder Hierarchy option is

not selected, the Save Copy In command copies
all files of the same type, regardless of their loca-
tion, into a single destination folder.

To save a copy of a session and preserve the
relative arrangement of its folders and files:

1

Choose File > Save Copy In.

2

Choose a destination and enter a name for the

copied session file.

3

Choose a session file format for the copied ses-

sion.

4

Select an Audio File Type, Sample Rate, and Bit

Depth for the copied session.

5

If applicable, select a Fader Gain level for the

copied session.

6

If applicable, select “Enforce Mac/PC Compat-

ibility” to create session and audio files that can
be used on both Windows and Mac Pro Tools
systems.

7

Select the Items to Copy for the copied ses-

sion.

8

Select Preserve Folder Hierarchy.

Click Save.
