! If you select a REX file, this will be rendered to audio when imported and all information about slice positions
etc. will be lost. The Song Tempo and any Tempo Automation starting at the Song Position Pointer will be
taken into account during the import. After the import, the REX file will behave just like any imported audio
file.
! If you are going to edit the imported REX file inline, and work with slices, audio quantizing, stretching etc. Rea-
son will automatically detect the transients in the audio and generate new slice markers that might not corre-
spond to the original slice distribution of the imported REX file, see “Editing audio in Slice Edit mode”.
3. Click “Import” to import the audio file(s).
Depending on the where the edit focus was when you selected “Import Audio File” from the Edit menu, the audio
file(s) will be placed a little differently. In all scenarios, the imported audio file(s) will be placed at the current song
position:
• If an audio track has edit focus in the sequencer track list and you have selected only a single audio file, the
imported audio file will be placed in a new clip on this audio track.
• If you selected several audio files when using the Import Audio File command, each audio file will be imported
to new audio tracks in the sequencer - in the order the files were selected in the Browser.
• If you selected only a single audio file and the edit focus is elsewhere in the application, a new audio track will
be created for the imported audio file.
D You can also drag one or several audio files from the Browser and drop in the sequencer track list.
The audio files will then be imported to separate audio tracks in the sequencer:
A + sign and a divider indicate where in the track list the imported audio file(s) will be placed.
D You can also drag one or several audio files from the Browser and drop on an audio track on the Arrange Pane.
The audio files will then be imported as separate audio clips, after one another, on the corresponding audio track.
If Snap is active in the sequencer, this will be taken into consideration:
A waveform sign and an insertion point divider indicate where on the audio track the imported audio file(s) will be placed.
