Where do I choose my audio device?
In standalone, open Settings > Audio > Audio Devices. In a hosted DonutStudio instance, choose hardware audio devices in the host DAW.
Why is Save unavailable after opening an example or external file?
Ordinary Save needs a library project. Use Save As New to create a named library copy. In a hosted instance, save the host DAW project.
Where can I restore a recovery snapshot?
Open Settings > System > Recovery and choose Restore from backup.... Choose a snapshot by timestamp and note/link count, then inspect and save the recovered work. Recovery snapshots are separate from library versions.
Does disabling an add-on delete its project data?
The Enable command changes the optional tool's saved presence preference and closes or hides gated authoring views. It does not delete project objects. Playback or rendering of retained objects depends on the workflow's license, media, devices and runtime.
How do I review external-client permissions?
Open Settings > External access. Choose the required permissions, review any exact supplied code, and use Review and create grant.... Permanent full automation approval is a separate, broader trust decision. Closing the panel does not revoke a grant.
Where do I adjust track levels and effects?
Use track volume and pan, standalone mute and solo, group buses and Device Chain. Select the master output for its chain.
