Default User Settings

In the Default User Settings dialog box you can specify certain default settings and values for your project. The default settings are set per user, which means that each user can define their own default settings for the project. These settings and default values and properties will be used by the current project until you edit or override them.

In the Object tab of the Default Settings dialog box, you can define the following default properties:

Routing for sound and Motion FX objects
Sound object volume
Conversion settings ShareSet

In most cases, these default settings will be applied to each new object that you create in your project. The only exception is when a new object is created as a child of another object. In this case, the object will inherit the audio output and Conversion Settings ShareSet assigned to the parent.
