Section : Creating a new project
In this section we are going to look at creating new
projects. At the end of this section you will have a new
project and edit ready for the next stage of this tutorial.
Creating projects is extremely easy. Just switch to the
projects page, click the new project... button (Fig. 4-1)
and enter a name for your project (in this case, enter
“tutorial”)
when prompted (Fig 4-2). Click the chooser
button to the right of the location field and choose a loca-
tion on your hard drive to create your new project. Click
the OK button when finished.
When you create a project, Tracktion will create a
folder with the same name, and write the new project
into it. The project will contain a blank (default) edit ready for you to start working. In addi-
tion the project will be added to the projects list.

Note: You may have noticed that in addition to the project name and location, you were
also prompted for a template. For the purposes of this tutorial we can ignore this option,
but if you would like to know more, it is covered in the reference manual.
Now your project has been created, all that remains to do is to open the default edit. The
process here is exactly the same as for the demo song in Section Two. Look for the edit in
the items list, and double-click on it. As with the demo song, a few moments will pass while
the edit is being opened. When this process is complete, Tracktion will switch you to the
edit page. You are now ready to start making some music.
