Hello there,
I'm getting ready to record a 12 song album with a 4 man rock band. The

drummer will come in on the first night to set drum tones.The rest of
the band will come and start recording the next two days. My question
is this?
If I setup a template on the first night. Once I get the drum levels
good. Maybe record 2 minutes and get eqs, compression ,sends and fx's
good.Can I save this template under as song 1 title,song 2 title ect..
and have each song have it's own audio file folder?
Thanks!

Yep. Make sure the songs/sessions are all in their own folder (that
there isn't a folder with 11 sessions surrounding a single audio files
folder).


If you do it this way you ought to put a song signifier on each track
name. Doesn't matter what it is, a dash or an x, but the song initials
are best. Otherwise you'll end up with 11 tracks named Kick, since
ProTools won't be able to alter the names of successive files the way
it would if you were working on a single session. Even though
identically named files may reside in separate folders and everything
works, that can bite you in the ass real hard down the road.

There the "Import Session Data" option on File.
That way you can save a template session and as the recording goes on,
you simply create new sessions for each song and import those drum
tracks.
