ok, how do you all go about loading and saving if your using multiple programs??

when I make a beat I usually use sounds, samples from maybe 10-15 different programs, I use so many because when I make a beat (only if I have a full day) I will usually use about 30 or 40 tracks and then juggle EVERYTHING around until I'm happy with the beat, anyway, my question is, do you all make a new program (I always name it the same as my beat) and place every sound you use in your beat into that program, then create a new folder and save your sequences, songs an programs all in the one same folder (which I usually call name of beat setup) eg, shitbeatsetup.

Am I doing this a crazy long way?? I've been doing i for so long now that I have it in my head that it's the most effecient but I was wondering if anyway had any tips.

I also always make a copy of each sound that I have used so I can leave the original in it's original program then I name the copy something again corresponding to my beat eg shitbeatkick.

the only reason I do this is because the one time I didn't make the copy an name it something else all my sequences ended up messed up.

also is it necessary to save all my sequences as well as song, I think I also remember when I didn't save the sequences that I used to create my song things went wrong, it rhymes it's not a crime, I'm hungry I might eat a dime...bar, car, far, bar, beer, near sirel sneer.

Your post was to long for me this morning to read (I'm at work and have to act like I'm working! LOL!) but if you save, I save everything I make in my song. You can name the program and what not but saving [all seq. and song] will save your programs to that folder. Once you want to go back to it you load the folder.. go back and load the prg. file. That should keep everything in one place and load correctly.
