Default Global Rack

Posted

Unless I'm mistaken, Synfire automatically loads up the Global Rack that you were working on when you last closed Synfire.

What if I had a huge orchestral Global Rack that takes (say) 10 minutes to load (as I intend doing shortly)?  The next time I start Synfire I might only need a GM Rack for some quick ideas/sketches but I have to wait for the huge rack to load.

Could there be a settings option to 'Automatically load previous rack'?

If ticked, it would work as currently.

If not ticked you would get a list of all your racks and you could choose which one you wanted to load at startup.

Good suggestion. I just dealt with the same question while working on an orchestral example. Took 6 minutes to load on startup, even on a Mac Pro.

As a workaround, I now switch to a small rack before closing Synfire.

And eventually I will put all sounds on a SSD.
