#How to make Bitwig to create all audio tracks in the project folder instead in its parent folder?

When I create a new project and save it in a certain folder all audio tracks I record are stored in the parent folder for some reason. Here's an example of what I mean:

  • Create new project and save it as ~/Bitwig Studio/Projects/Covers/Songname/Songname.bwproject.
  • Record a single audio file.
  • The resulting WAV file is then stored in ~/Bitwig Studio/Projects/Covers/recordings/Audio 1-1.wav.

I would expect that Bitwig creates the subfolders recordings , auto-backup, and bounce in the corresponding project folder and not in its parent.

I now have the problem that all projects living in the Covers folder share the same recordings directory and it is impossible to move them to a different place because of that dependency. How can I tell Bitwig to use the actual project folder? That's the only annoying thing I found in Bitwig since I started using it some years ago.

Thank you!

That's strange. This is how my project folders are structured. Ignore "Export WAV" that is manually created, all the other folders has been generated by bitwig and is the same for all my projects. This is the normal behavior (and what are you expecting).

Maybe you accidentally made a symbolic link or moved the *.bitwig-project * somewhere else?
