  • Changing location of recorded files.

    Posted by Tyren Hones on August 13, 2008 at 12:56 am

    Hi I’m using Sony Vegas 6.0 for multi-track audio recording. We recently upgraded our hard drive, and I have partitioned it so I only have C drive for programs, and put all my data on D drive. I recorded some tracks a short while ago and when prompted to choose a location for my recorded files, i selected a spot on D drive and un-ticked the selection of ‘ask me this everytime’, assuming it would just record all of my future files to that location. But now I’ve run out of space on C because it’s automatically saving things in My Documents, and considering I un-ticked the selection of asking me again, I have to manually move my recorded files after every session, and some of them are being names the same as existing files of course.

    So my question is how do I change the location of my recorded files? I had a look in properties and tried to find it but I don’t think I could. I’m pretty sure that ‘Temporary Folder’ isn’t the one I’m looking for, but I could be wrong.

    Any help greatly appreciated.

    To change prerendered video folder;
    Project Settings/Video tab/prerendered video folder

    To change recorded audio folders in Vegas;
    Project Settings/Audio tab/recorded audio folder

    To change captured video folder;
    Run Sony Video Capture
    goto Options/Preferences/Disk Management tab

    Thanks for your help mate. Vegas 6.0 doesn’t have a project settings menu, so I went into file/Properties and the pre-rendered audio option was there. I should have found this myself but I felt that I had looked everywhere and probably just overlooked the file menu.

    Cheers.
