Optimizing a Song on an AW4416
As a Song is being constructed and multiple takes are being recorded, a Song Project can accumulate extra data that is ultimately not needed. Each take is stored to the Song file and the Undo and Redo functions allow the user to select the best take with up to 15 Undo or Redo operations. In a large project, multiple takes can quickly fill the hard disk space. Optimizing a Song can recover hard disk space by deleting the data used by the Undo and Redo functions.
IMPORTANT: Optimizing is only recommended when it is no longer necessary to perform Undo or Redo functions.
