HD-P2 Screens and Menus

Change/New Project

By default the HD-P2 automatically makes the first project whenever new media is used. To make addi- tional projects, or switch between projects, use the Change/New Project menu from the Main menu.

In Figure 18 the menu shows the currently loaded project (Project 09) and any other projects on this Compact Flash card. If you select a non-loaded proj- ect, like Project 02, the sub-menu provides the choices of Loading the project or Deleting. Deleting a project permanently removes all audio files and settings and cannot be undone.

If you select Create New Project you are prompted to choose a Project Template as in Figure 19. The Default Template is based on the Default Project Settings in the System Menu. There may also be a list of templates that you have saved from other projects, like the file Proj0900 shown in Figure 19.
