| I want to import a reference track into a Studio One project (I use producer by the way) but I really don't how to. It's probably simple but I'm somewhat computer illiterate. Can someone explain in the most simple and explicit terms possible what ways I can bring a professionally mixed track into my project page. Thank you. |
| If tou mean directly from a cd, in windows you cant. You need to rip the song to your hdd first. Then you can open the browser, go to the files tab in browser, find the file, then click and drag it to an empty are in the arrange view. It will create a new track automatically.

| Ok. First of all what is an hdd and how do I rip it? And what files tab are you talking about? |

I'm no PC/Windows expert but I found this link for you about ripping from a CD, Google is my friend too: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/wind . =windows-7 Files tab, he's talking about the word 'Files' that appears at the bottom of the browser which is on the right side of your Studio One window (or hit F5 if it isn't). Click that, then click Files at the top, then navigate to wherever you ripped the track to.

| And. zachariahrollins. Have patience. It sounds like you have some PC and Studio One learning to do. It doesn't happen overnight. Learning can also bring satisfying 'Ah hah' and 'Got it' moments.

| Thanks. I hope to take some computer classes someday, but in the mean time, me and Google may have to become more than just acquaintences |
| BTW I actaully remembered what he meant by the files tab. I just didnt bother to take a second and think about it |

| I recommend a free program called AudioGrabber for Windows. I it lets you extract (rip) songs in high quality from CD to your hard drive. The key is to rip them as .wav files so they will be of highest quality. Then you can used the browser in Studio One to find, select and drag the song into a new track. Just drop it at an empty spot and a new track will be created for it. Make sure to position it at the start of the time line. |
