Session Cleanup
How do I clean up a Cubase session after recording?
Run Session Cleanup. It opens the Pool and removes missing files, deletes empty and muted parts, removes empty Audio, MIDI, and Folder tracks, hides empty Marker and Chord tracks, deselects everything, then disables muted tracks. Install the pack and launch “0 - Session Cleanup” from Key Commands, or run it in one click from the KeyCmds app.

Questions
- Is this the same Flow as in the KeyCmds app?
- Yes. Session Cleanup (`kc_session_cleanup`) is the official downloadable Flow. The pack and the app run the same nine PLE files; the app skips the Key Commands connector.
- What is inside the download?
- Nine PLE XML presets (connector + eight cleanup steps) and a README with Mac/Windows install paths. Search “0 - Session Cleanup” in Key Commands after you paste the folder.
