7.1.3 Supported File Types
The Manager supports the following file types:
• M4A AAC (including AAC-LC, HE-AAC and MPEG Surround)
• MP3
• WAVE (Uncompressed)
• AIFF (Uncompressed)
Unsupported file types will not be recognised as audio files by the background scan process, nor
will they be displayed in the File List (see next section).
Click on a folder in the Browser to display the supported audio files it contains in the File List
section.
7.2 File List
This section displays all compatible audio files that are in the top-level of the folder currently
selected in the Folder Browser. Incompatible file types are not displayed. The section provides the
following information:
• File Name
• File Type
• File Size (in MB)
• Presence of Metadata (for MP3 and M4A files). If a file contains metadata supported by the
Manager, an Arrow Button is displayed in the rightmost column of the list.
o Hover the mouse cursor over one of these buttons to preview the file’s metadata.
o Single-click to import the file’s metadata into the Metadata Editor.
To select a file to audition, single-click in the playback column to the left of the file name. The file
will begin to play immediately, and clicking in the same column again will pause playback.
To select a file for processing, single-click on the file. This is denoted by an orange highlight.
