Ancillary Files

Ancillary files (extension .vs) contain view settings for audio files.

Ancillary files can enhance the speed and efficiency of your editing workflow, but they are not essential. Deleting them does not result in any data loss, as they are automatically regenerated when required.

Among others, the following view settings can be included in ancillary files:

  • Window size and position

  • Zoom level

  • Scroll position

  • Display mode (Waveform/Spectrum/Loudness)

  • Snapshots

To specify where to save ancillary files, select File > Preferences > Audio Files, and choose an option in the Location of Associated Files section of the File tab.
