Deletes unneeded temporary compressed audio files from the Beatnik Editor's disk cache.


Every time you preview a new compression setting for any Sample, a new compressed copy of the Sample is generated and saved in a temporary cache folder on your hard drive. If this process goes on long enough, it can eat up more of your free disk space than you might like. Clearing the compression cache recovers this free space.
Two things to remember:
  • Clearing the cache is safe

The original, uncompressed Samples stay in your Session document and aren't affected in any way.

  • Even if you never clear the cache, it won't hurt your RMF files in any way

The cache doesn't affect the size of your exported RMF files in any way.

Note: To remove your original, uncompressed Samples rather than the extra compressed copies, see the Delete uncompressed originals dialog box.
