Now that you've finished installing and configuring the HDR24/96, you're almost
ready to start your first Project. We still want you to read this entire guide, but we
already hear some of you shuffling and muttering. Okay, okay, okay... for the
terminally impatient, read this chapter, then you can go out and play with your
friends.

Opening Projects

The HDR24/96 organizes audio files and session information into folders called
Projects. When the HDR24/96 boots up, it automatically opens the last Project
you worked on. We've included two demonstration Projects, Ode to Masters and
Little Love, to help you get familiar with the HDR24/96 right out of the box. At
this point, you should see the name of the demo Project in the LCD display and
above the Current Time display in the GUI.
