Importing Files with the Browser

It is possible to import several file types from the Browser into your Song or Project, including
WAV (BWF and RF64), AIFF, REX, Apple Loops (CAF only in Mac OS X), Ogg Vorbis, FLAC, and
MP3 audio files, as well as Standard MIDI Files, and of course Studio One's Audio Loops and
Music Loops.
7.2.1 Find Audio Files in the Browser
Open the Browser by clicking on the Browse button, or press [F5] on the keyboard, and click
on the Files button at the bottom of the Browser to view files and locations on your computer.
You also can press [F9] on the keyboard to open the File Browser directly.
By default, the File Browser will display four folders:
Desktop. This will contain all folders and files on your desktop.
•
Documents. This is the default Documents folder for your computer (Windows
•
and Mac OS X).
Content. This is the Content folder as specified in Studio
•
One/Options/Locations/User Data setup menu (Mac OS X:
Preferences/Options/Locations/User Data), which will contain all Songs, Projects,
Presets, and other Studio One files. This location is named 'Studio One' in the
Browser.
Volumes. This folder will contain all file-storage locations on your computer, such
•
as the C: drive in Windows.
Servers. This folder will contain specific server locations that Studio One interfaces
•
with, such as SoundCloud (in Studio One Professional).
Navigate the Browser by clicking on any folder to view its contents, as you would with
Windows Explorer or Mac OS X Finder.
When browsing Audio Loop files and REX audio files, notice the drop-down arrow that
expands to reveal the slices of the REX file. If you drag in either of these files, the slices will be
contained in an Audio Part.
It is possible that files added to, or moved in, your computer while Studio One is open will not
appear in the Browser. If you encounter this, [Right]/[Control]+Click in the Browser and select
Refresh to reload the views of the storage locations on your computer.
7.2.2 Preview an Audio File in the Browser
When an audio file is selected in the Browser, the bottom window of the Browser will become
the Preview Player, displaying transport controls and information about the selected file.
