Console Sessions - Universal Audio Arrow Manual

Console Sessions

The Sessions controls provide methods for managing complete Console configurations
as session preset files. When a Console session file is saved, the current Console
configuration is written to disk.
When a session file is subsequently reloaded, Console is returned to the exact same
configuration state, regardless of any changes to Console that were made in the interim.
Content of Session Files
Console session files contain most, but not all, Console settings. The specific parameters
saved and not saved are listed below:
Saved – All knob, slider, and menu values, all inserted UAD plug-ins, settings contained
within the plug-ins, and settings in Console Settings window (except those listed below).
Not saved – Monitor Gain, Sample Rate, Cue Outputs, and I/O Matrix settings are global
parameters that are not session-specific. Most of these settings are managed in the
Console Settings window.
Tip: Core Audio / ASIO driver routes can be saved separately in the
Default Session Files Location
By default, session files are saved to, and loaded from, the user's home folder at:
• Mac: Users/UserName/Documents/Universal Audio/Sessions/
• Windows: C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\Universal Audio\Sessions
Although session files can be saved to (and loaded from) any location on disk, using the
default location offers the most convenience, because Console always uses this location
for the Sessions Manager window and also Open/Save dialogs presented by the OS.
Note: Session files must reside in the default location to appear in session lists
within Console.
Sessions Sub-Folders
The Session Files folder can contain one level of sub-folders for additional session
organization capability. The contents of sub-folders (if any) are displayed in the SUB-
FOLDER column in the
is selected.
Session Files Suffix
Console's session files have the ".uadmix" suffix. The suffix is added to session files
automatically when saving to disk; however, the suffix is not displayed in the file save
dialog (the suffix should not be manually typed when saving a session file).
Note: Without the .uadmix suffix, the session files will not be visible in the
"Open" file dialogs or the Sessions menu, and they won't be opened when they
are double-clicked in the OS file system.
