Importing Audio from video files

While you can automatically extract the audio when importing a video file, it is also possible to import the audio from a video file without importing the video itself:

Procedure

  1. Open the File menu, open the Import submenu and select “Audio from Video File…”.
  2. In the file dialog that opens, locate and select the video file and click Open.

    The audio in the selected video file is extracted and converted to a Wave file in the project’s Audio folder.

    A new audio clip is created and added to the Pool. In the Project window, an event referencing the audio file is inserted on the selected track at the project cursor position. If no track was selected, a new track is created.

    This works just like importing regular audio files.
