Moving Audio/Midi Library

[FuzzyStone]

Hiya Folks,

Here's the thing........I've devided my Harddisk in a C: and D: drive.
C: for programs (Like my Cubase VST 4.0) and D: for storage (like music and pics). So far so good.
During installation Cubase creates the audio/midi library in the cubase folder (that's on C. But I would rather not like to store my audio and midi files on C: but on D:. So far so good.
I know that it's possible to browse to another location once the library is opened, so I could leave the actual library empty, store at D: and browse my way to my stuff. So far not so good.
So, because I'm such a lazy bastard, I'd like to know if it's possible to move the library to D: and tell that to cubase somehow, so it will find it there in the future and I won't have to browse??
Thanks in advance,
Major Scale Greetings,

Fuzz

You can keep the files anywhere (at least in 5.0). However, moving them after you've created the song can be a huge PITA.

See my thread from a month ago:

It all got fixed, but it was a mess. If the files you're moving have unique names and are in the same folder, it should be easy - my problem was that I did it the opposite - same filenames in different folders. That was my standard approach for cutting projects over from Acid to Cubase. I may change that, now that I've seen the results of a disk move.

Good luck.
