Importing Existing Recordings

You can import recordings that you have made outside VinylStudio into your collection. To do so, click on the Record tab and then:

• enter the artist and album title for the album you wish to import
• if you are importing a single (or other material with no trackbreaks) check the This is a Single box
• click on Import Sound File

If you have already added the album to your collection, click on Work with an existing album, then select the album from the dropdown list and click on Import Sound File. You can also import files via the File History List in the Cleanup Audio window, where you can see which files have been imported or recorded previously for a particular album side.

The file you select will, at your option, either be left where it is or copied or moved into VinylStudio's recordings folder. VinylStudio can import both MP3 and WAV files.

Only files recorded with sample rates of 16kHz, 22kHz, 32kHz or 44kHz can be imported. If you need to import a file and VinylStudio will not let you, try converting it to a 44Khz WAV file using something like Audacity.

If you wish to re-import a file that you have edited outside VinyStudio, please refer to the File History List help topic. You can also use the File History List to convert between MP3 and WAV formats.
