In this article we will show you how to stop Gig Performer from automatically loading the last gig file.
It’s usually convenient to have Gig Performer load the last gig file automatically at startup. There’s a general option that controls this behavior. However, occasionally you may need to temporarily prevent automatic gig file loading. One reason is because you do want to load a different gig file and don’t want to have to wait for the previous gig file to load. Another common reason is because you want to change your sample buffer size or sample rate and this can be done much faster if no rackspaces are loaded.
