Managing Templates

[drsaamah]

First of all, let me specify that I am still on 5.3.4.
Is there anywhere to manage the Templates that have been created? Specifically, I want to delete some that are obsolete to my workflow. I would also like my go-to template to be the first option when I am creating a new session (as opposed to "Empty Template".
Any way to do this?

The template manager lets you rename/archive/delete templates. As for the order of appearance I believe you can edit ~/.config/mixbus5/recent_templates

Thank you, I appreciate the reply, but I cannot for the life of me find the "template manager". I have the prompt when I create a new session that does not allow me to do anything other than select template, and then I have the dialog that comes up during a session when I click "File->Save Template" in the toolbar. That also does not allow me to do anything with the templates that have already been created.

Seems that you have got an answer to you question. Just a tip: In the template manager there is no way to edit your templates. To solve this I make an empty session(no audio files) as a setup for each template. If I want to change anything in the template later I open the empty session, do the changes needed and save it with the same template name.

Great idea Thank you.
I've realized the last few days that people really have way more go-to methods for production and mixing than I do. I see people with templates that have specific plugin chains for each instrument and tracks already dedicated to those instruments. I just wanted to have hardware inputs and outputs already connected and ready to go. There's no way I can commit to using a size fits all production method for every project haha.

Thank you both for the help again. Really appreciate it.
