Managing Your Content - PRESONUS AudioBox Stereo Quick Start Manual

If this occurs, navigate to Studio One/Options/External Devices (Mac OS X:
Preferences/Options/External Devices) and click on Reconnect at the bottom of the menu.
Then reconnect your devices and click OK. The devices will now work normally in Studio One.
If an external device is not present when Studio One is started—for instance, if you're traveling
and don't have some of your gear with you— the application still will run normally. You
should see a warning message that makes you aware of the situation. If your setup frequently
changes, you may wish to turn off this warning message by disengaging the Notify Me If
Devices Are Unavailable When Studio One Starts option.
Later, when you start Studio One with the device connected to your computer, Studio One will
recognize the device automatically, and it can be used exactly as before, with no further setup
required.

Managing Your Content

Content management and file management can become unwieldy quickly when working with
digital audio workstation software due to the sheer volume of loops, effects, song ideas,
individual tracks, and so on. In Studio One, you only need to locate your preexisting content
once, after which all of the locations will be remembered. Any content you create using Studio
One will be similarly managed. In Studio One, your content is kept in distinct categories.
The following describes the process of managing your content using Studio One's Studio
One/Options/Locations (Mac OS X: Preferences/Options/Locations) menu.
4.5.1 User Data
Any content you create using Studio One will be automatically stored in the location you
specify. This includes Songs, Projects, Effects Presets, and all of the files these categories
contain. All of your creative output will be logically organized and kept in a single place, which
makes future location and backup a breeze.
When creating a new Song or Project, the User Data folder will be the default save location.
While we recommend using this location, you can specify any save location when creating any
new Song or Project.
It is also possible to engage Autosave, which will automatically save any open document at a
specified interval of time.
When saving a Song, if any files being used in the Song exist outside of the Song's media
folder, you will be asked if you would like to Copy External Files to the Media Folder.
4.5.2 File Types
All supported file extensions are listed in the Studio One/Options/Locations/File Types menu.
Only these supported file types will be displayed in the Browser.
