Audio Performance
Compacting Audio Files
The Compact Audio Data command places all digital audio used in the
current project into a single digital audio Þle. This can improve the
efÞciency of playback, particularly if you have performed lots of audio
editing.
Individual audio events in the project point to speciÞc portions of this
single Þle. Audio events may continue to use the same portion of the
audio data Þle in order to reduce disk usage. When this command has
been carried out, all of the original audio Þles remain in the wavedata
folder. To reclaim disk space, use the Tools-Clean Audio Disk
command.
