Hi all,
In Ardour2, I used to copy my existing session into a new directory,
hack the ardour files to change the directory names and then drop in the
recordings to make the podcast releases a lot easier.
In Ardour3 when I do the same trick, the session looks OK but the audio
content is missing. The regions are visible but with no waveform (and
audio when I hit the play button). I hacked the ardour file & the
instant.xml file as well as the interchange contents. All that changes
is the episode number (i.e., epXX to epXY so a quick search & replace
used to work in Ardour 2).
Template only saves the tracks etc., not the audio files. I already have
the intro & outro etc. with automation. All I want is the middle bit of
the podcast replaced with the latest version. I don't want to reuse the
existing session since I usually do a number of recordings and then
prepare them, put it into the can and wait until it's time to upload. I
might have to go back and redo something quickly so I'd rather have a
pile of sessions sitting on disk.
How does this supposed to work? :-)
Cheers,
Hakan

its not. Ardour has no "Save-As" feature.
but there's no fundamental difference in this area compared to Ardour2
- the files are placed in the same location as they used to be.

That's true,
the files are in the same place but there must be something
different. If I open the same ardour file with Ardour2, everything is
there but not with Ardour3. I can generate screen shots if necessary. :)

i also think that it would be more polite to use the ardour-users
mailing list for this sort of question, but never mind now.

I must be imagining things! I thought it
worked last time :) It must be
as simple as that!

it probably did. the whole reason why a3 is still not at alpha is that

You missed the point. The point is that Ardour 3 is
PRE-ALPHA. That means that if you don't intend to help out
with debugging, broken features, waiting patiently, and NOT
posting issues to LAU... then you have no business using
Ardour 3.
Ardour has its own developers list. If you wish to
contribute to be a part of A3 development, please go there.
A3 has no business on this list.
For Ardour 2... post here all you want. :-)
Thanks,
Gabriel

last time something like this happened to me, it was the name of the
audio data directory.
say your session is $foo. you copy it to $bar, and then you replace all
$foos for $bars in your new session file.
unfortunately, your data directory is still
/interchange/$foo/audiofiles. now you can either add this to ardour3's
search path when the missing files popup comes up, or just rename the
directory.
