Preview Audio Files

A selected audio file can be previewed using the Play button. With activated Auto-Play (lock symbol) the audio file will be played as soon as it is selected. This way it is possible to go through the file list using the arrow keys and listen to each file immediately. You can stop the playback by clicking the Play button again. Use the slider to adjust the volume.

Next to the playback control a small preview of the file will be displayed, in the waveform you can move the preview playback position to any place in the file.

Playback is not performed via the mixer or internal effects, but via the global playback device selected in the playback parameters (keyboard shortcut: P). If no playback occurs, check to ensure that the routing settings for the device are correct.

	Looped Preview: Previewing the selected file happens in a loop.
	BPM Sync: This option allows you to preview the selected file in the project tempo. The original BPM is specified in this case by the length of the file. During playback, double-clicking loops inserts them into your project as loop objects at the next bar start.

Note: To preview certain media data, e.g. in WMA format, you have to convert these files to .wav format. Conversion is carried out automatically in the background.
