I’m sugesting this because my songs directory has become a disorganized mess with all these backup songs. It would be nice to relocate the backup directory to another location, ideally an alternate physical drive.
I second and third that, very much.
yeh this would be nice
Yeah, I am also tired of a full HDD with started songs. I guess, if they all go in ONE directory, it’s easier to delete them 
don’t see the problem - directories will be created for every song … that’s ok … I can’t see the difference between delete directories or single files
but maybe the labeling of these directories and the labeling of the backup’s should be changed (on the files: date and time in addition to the filename)
for the dir’s:
Backup -> #RNSbackup
for the filenames:
-> _
There is an option where it lets you enter a value for number of back-ups kept. Is that not this?
Or do you mean an absolute total, rather than a total for each song?
oh … i haven’t all Renoise features in mind … ok 
nevertheless … it’s worth to think about the labeling …
for me, I have several directories for my musics now, one for the beats, one for the house-stuff, one for some of the experiments and unfinished tracks, one directory for every remix I do, several directories I have for the different people I work with … so it really gets cluttered with all those backups and there is no easy way to simply delete all of them. but I guess alot of people dont see the need for that.
maybe make it an option to put all the backups in one dir, this would be really nice.
