Import Options Dialog

The Import Options dialog allows you to specify how audio files are imported into the Pool.

  • If you select a file in the Import Medium dialog and click Open, the Import Options dialog opens.

Copy File to Working Directory/Copy Files to Working Directory

Copies the audio file to the Audio folder of the project, and has the clip refer to the copy.

Deactivate this option to have the clip refer to the original file in the original location. In this case, it is marked as external in the Pool.

Convert to Project/Convert and Copy to Project If Needed

Converts the imported file if the sample rate or the bit depth differ from the settings in the Project Setup dialog.

Please, don’t ask again

Always imports files according to the settings, without opening the dialog again. You can reset this option in the Preferences dialog (Editing—Audio page).
