+ DSP CPU Utilization sets how many cpu processors can be + used to do signal processing. It can be set to use one up to all + processors. +
+ Undo +
+ Limit undo history sets how many commands can be + undone using Z or + Edit > Undo. +
+ Save undo history sets how many commands are saved so + they are available to be undone after reopening the session. +
+ Verify removal of last capture when enabled prompts to + verify removal the last recording capture when + Edit > Remove Last Capture is executed. +
+ Make periodic backups of the session file will create + a backup session file after changes to the timeline. The backup file is + the session name followed by .ardour.bak. The backup can be + used to recover from crashes when the session had not been explicitly + saved. +
+ Session Management +
+ Always copy imported files selects, and then disables + changes to, the Copy files to session option in the + + Add Existing Media dialog. +
+ Default folder for new sessions: defalts the folder + where Ardour will create new session folders. This is used in the + Session Setup dialog displayed by + Session > New. +
+ Maximum number of recent sessions: determines how many + of the last opened sessions shows in the + Recent Sessions dialog displayed by + Session > Recent. +
+ Click audio file: sets a user defined sound to be + played when Ardour's metronome is enabled in the + + Transport Bar +
+ Click emphasis audio file: sets an optional different + metronome sound to be played on the downbeat. +
+ Click gain level: allows the metronome's click sounds + to be boosted or attenuated. +
+ Automation +
+ Thinning factor ranges from 0 to 1000 with larger + values sending fewer automation changes. Thinning is like lossy + audio compression, removing data that is less likely to be noticed, + although the more you remove the more likely the loss will be noticed. + The advantage to thinning is reduced CPU usage. +
+ Automation sampling interval ranges from 1 to + 1000 ms. Determines how frequently the automation input is + sampled. The shorter the interval the higher the accuracy but also + the higher the CPU requirements. +
