Hey there.
Thank you so much for such a thorough explaination. That makes perfect
sense. So, if I did use Save as, to just make another revision, how would
that work sinse it's only saving the .ptx file? Would I then basically copy
the other files/folders making up the session to the same place where I
saved the revision with save as?
Chris.

Save as allows you to rename the file/save anew version of the project
file with a new name. For example you have song.ptx Then when you
mix it you will do save as and rename it Song Mix.ptx. You do a
revision and save it as song mix2.ptx. and so on. While you can use
save as to save a copy in a new location, this only saves the project
file. It doesn't bring the project audio files, plug in settings,etc
etc along with it. the project file or PTX file is essentially a tiny
file that tells pro tools what do do with the audio and etc.When
using save copy in, it will create a new project folder with all the
files associated with the project in it. This is ideal for back up and
archival purposes if you want to save the project to a different hard
drive or etc. It is also ideal when you want to conver the project to
another format for sending off to another studio/engineer.

So wait a second. I'm a little confused. If that is the case, then,
what's
the difference in that from the save as, as I was under the impression
that
if I wanted to save in a new location, that's where save as came into
play.
Where am I getting confused? What did I miss?

it allows you to save an entire copy of the session including audio
files and etc in a separate location

Awesomeness, I'll give that a shot. I did kind of wonder what that
option did differently.
Thanks for the help.

try save copy as instead of save as.

OK, so I have a studio I'm going to be working in that I need to send
a
session to. They only have ProTools MP9 however. I know that PT 10
saves
the session in a .ptx format, which I kind a recall ProTools 9 not
being
able to open. When I went to the file menu, and to save as, even
after
expanding the disclosure triangle, I don't see any way to set the
file
type
to the older format. I know this can be done, as I've seen people do
it. I
just wonder how they're going about resaving the session in a format
that
MP9 can open.
