The Audio Window
you the opportunity of replacing the audio file in the song
with the file that you have just copied.
Data format: MAGIX midi studio generation 6 allows sav-
ing audio files in the formats Wave (.wav) or AIFF (Audio
Interchange File Format).
Moving Audio Files
The Audio File > Move File(s) function enables you to
move audio files on your hard disk. Unlike the copy func-
tion, the source file disappears afterwards.
If the source drive/partition is the same as the target
drive/partition the files are simply moved to the other
folder. This is a very quick and convenient way of organiz-
ing the drive and the song.
Choose “Select Used” from the Edit menu of the Audio
window (this refers to the files which are being used in the
Arrange window), and move them to a new folder. This
folder will then contain just the audio files from this song.
Be very careful when using this function. A different song
may use the same audio files. The next time you start the
other song, you will then have to locate the files that you
have moved.
MAGIX midi studio generation 6 updates the information
on the new path for all open songs which use this audio
file. Thus, you can open every song which uses the audio
file(s) you are moving. Then move the files to the new lo-
cation, and save the songs to transfer the storage refer-
ence(s).
Other Functions involving Audio Files
Reassigning Audio Files: If MAGIX midi studio gener-
ation 6 cannot find one or more audio files—for example
when it opens a song—the regions are shown as gray ar-
eas in the Audio window.
If the files are available under a different name or if you
want to assign a “replacement” file, you can do this as fol-
