The File > Import > Audio command lets you import “Digital audio” on page 1911 information stored
in wave file format into any track (or, for stereo, two tracks) of a project.
The File > Import > Audio command supports the following digital audio file types:
• Wave (extension .wav)
• MPEG (extensions .mpeg, .mpg, .mp2, and .mp3)
• Windows Media files (extension .wma)
• Apple AIFF (extensions .aif and .aiff)
• MS Streaming Format (extension .ams)
• Audio files (extensions .au and .snd)
The sampling rate for a project is set based on your default sampling rate. If the sampling rate from
the wave file does not match the sampling rate in your project, then it will be converted to the current
project’s sampling rate.

File > Import > Audio CD
The File > Import > Audio CD command lets you import tracks from audio CD’s into any track of a
project. Any number of CD tracks can be imported. For each track selected, a new Audio track is
created in the project.
The File > Import > Audio CD command supports CD Audio Track files (extension .cda).
Audio tracks on a CD always have a bit depth of 16, but you can choose to import the tracks at a
higher bit depth if desired.
