massive autosave files with VePro

Post by gzap »

Hey all,

I finally created a large template using VE Pro on an external pc but am now finding my autosave files are suddenly 70Mb each, with auto save folders hitting 3 Gb without me even noticing this.

Has anyone else had this issue? Does decoupling instances help? DP (10) tends to also give me a few seconds of SPOD with autosaves, not sure if this is the autosave with VE Pro or just the size of the files now with a template of a couple hundred tracks.

Any ideas?

I think decoupling would solve your problem.

I have an orchestra template and a VEPro server project for each project and save the VEPro only when I make changes to it.

Thanks, Leigh, I'll give that a try.
Nice looking rig in your sig, I'm running 3 MH boxes as well.

Thanks. The MH gear and a pair of Neumann M-149's are tied for the best audio purchase I've ever made.
