Questions

Where are my projects saved?

Where you save them, as .vidaw files. A saved project saves itself a couple of seconds after each change. An untitled project keeps a recovery copy, so if VIDAW closes unexpectedly it offers your changes back the next time it opens.

VIDAW says some media is missing.

A file the project uses was moved or renamed. In Find missing media, locate the file, or choose a folder and VIDAW finds every missing file in it by name.

How do I play an instrument from the keyboard?

Arm the instrument's track, then press M to turn the keys on. The home row plays the notes, Z and X change the octave, and C and V change the velocity. The keys work in any keyboard layout.

How loud are exports?

Export can bring the mix to -14 LUFS with peaks under -1 dB true peak, the level streaming services play at.

A refund?

Refunds go through Apple: reportaproblem.apple.com.
