Exploring the Audio Bin
The Audio Bin can be viewed as an audio le catalog for your project. Once an audio
le has been added to your project, it appears in the Bin.
Getting Ready
Open the Bin:
Click the Bin tab at the top of the Media area (or press the B key). The two Apple Loops 
audio les you added to the audio track in the previous section appear in the Bin.
The Info column displays audio le and region information. The horizontal bars indicate
the overall audio le length. The colored sections of these bars indicate the location
and size of audio regions within the audio le.
Try This
Import an audio le into the Bin:
Choose Audio File > Add Audio File, browse to a location where you’ll nd an audio le, 
click the Add button, then click the Done button. The audio le is added to the Bin.
Add an audio le to the Arrange area:
Drag the audio le you just imported from the Bin into the Arrange area. 
