Convert Options Dialog

To open the Convert Options dialog, select a clip in the Pool window, and select Media > Convert Files.

Sample Rate

Allows you to convert to another sample rate.

Bit Depth

Allows you to convert to 16 bit, 24 bit, 32 bit, 32 bit float, or 64 bit float.

Channels

Allows you to convert to mono or stereo interleaved.

Options

You can use the Options pop-up menu to set one of the following options:

• New Files

  Creates a copy of the file in the audio folder and converts this new file according to the chosen attributes. The new file is added to the Pool, but all clip references still point to the original, unconverted file.

• Replace Files

  Converts the original file without changing clip references. However, the references are saved with the next save action.

• New + Replace in Pool

  Creates a new copy with the chosen attributes, replaces the original file with the new one in the Pool and redirects the current clip references from the original file to the new file. Select the latter option if you want your audio clips to refer to the converted file, but want to keep the original file on disk, for example, if the file is used in other projects.
