I am looking for a better way to archive my raw master files from A3. I want to keep the raw masters intact, but also preserve all the adjustments I've made (which are essentially just filters or instructions) in the archive as well, so I don't lose them all. I understand I can archive the adjusted version along with the original master, (ie. as a jpeg) but these aren't really able to be edited again like my master raw would be.

I understand sidecar files contain metadata like ratings, keywords, etc, but aren't adjustments just metadata too? Can't sidecar files which contain adjustments be exported along with the raw masters so I don't lose all my adjustments?

Any help would be great!
