-<h3>Switching to a Snapshot</h3>
-<p>If you are already working on a session and want to to switch to an existing snapshot, navigate the Snapshots tab of the <a href="/ardours-interface/introducing-the-editor-window/editor-lists">Editor Lists</a>. Find the name of the snapshot in the list and click it. Ardour will switch to the snapshot. If the session has not been saved, Ardour will ask what you want to do.</p>

-<h3>Starting Ardour With a Snapshot</h3>
-<p>Since a snapshot is just another session file stored within the session folder, you can specify that "version" when loading an existing session. The browser in the "Open Session" dialog will show an expander arrow for sessions that have more than 1 session file (i.e. snapshots) present - click on it to see the list, and then click on the name of the snapshot you want to load.</p>

-<h3>Saving and Switching to a Snapshot</h3>
-<p>Sometimes you want to create a snapshot and then have all future edits and modifications saved to that snapshot rather than the main session. This is easily done using <code>Session &gt; Save As</code>. This does not create a new session folder,  but saves your session as a new snapshot and then switches the "current snapshot" to the newly created one. All subsequent saves of the session will be stored in this new snapshot, and existing snapshots (and the main session) will be left unaffected. </p>
