The Import Options dialog allows you to specify how audio files are imported into the Pool.
If you select a file in the Import Medium dialog and click Open, the Import Options
dialog opens.
Copy File to Working Directory

In this case, it is marked as “external” in the Pool.
Convert to Project: Sample Rate/Sample Size
Converts the imported file if the sample rate or the sample size differ from the
settings in the Project Setup dialog.
Please, don’t ask again
Always imports files according to the settings, without opening the dialog again. You
