<title>Closing a Session</title>
<para>
Ardour only allows you to work on one session at a time (although
your computer may be able to run multiple instances of Ardour at one
time). This means that to work on a different session than the current
one, you will be forced to close the current session. You can either
</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
<menuchoice>
<guimenu>Session</guimenu>
<guisubmenu>Close</guisubmenu>
</menuchoice>
will close the current session.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<menuchoice>
<guimenu>Session</guimenu>
<guisubmenu>Open</guisubmenu>
</menuchoice>
will prompt you for the name of a session to work on, and will then close the current session.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<menuchoice>
<guimenu>Session</guimenu>
<guisubmenu>New</guisubmenu>
</menuchoice>
will open the New Session dialog
to collect configuration information for the new session, and will then
close the current session.
</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
<para>
Whenever a session is closed but has been modified since last saved,
the Save dialog will appear.
</para>
<mediaobject>

<imagedata fileref="images/save_session_dialog.png"/>
</imageobject>
</mediaobject>
<para>
You have three options when this dialog appears:
</para>
<orderedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
Save the session before closing it
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Close the session without saving it
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Do not close the session
</para>
</listitem>
</orderedlist>
<note>
<para>
If you choose the final option, whatever operation initiated the
closing of the session will be stopped. For example, if you were
loading a new session while working on an existing one, no new session
will be loaded.
