[LAU] Ardour snapshots

Recently, I recorded some additional tracks into an Ardour session, and the new tracks turned out great, but some levels were changed on some of the already existing material that shouldn't have been changed, and I'd like to get my old levels back. I never created a snapshot in Ardour before these fader level changes. Fortunately, my machine makes backups every night, and I have a copy of my old project folder from backups. It's thus possibly to use rsync to zap my whole project folder back to the way it was before, get my levels, and then zap it back to its new state again. I was just curious though: Is it possible to use the .ardour and/or .history files from my old backed up folder to get the snapshot I should have made? Is it possible to recover these files, copy them into the new state of my folder, and use them as snapshots without changing a lot of other things? The reason I ask is because snapshots behave a lot like Ardour session files. (I haven't dived into the internals; maybe they are Ardour session files?) -- - Brent Busby + =============================================== + With the rise of social networking -- Studio -- + sites, computers are making people -- Amadeus -- + easier to use every day. ----------------+ ===============================================
