pop-up menu. The audio capture interface can be identical to your video capture

Choose the input on your audio interface you used to connect your audio deck from
the Input pop-up menu. (Some video and audio capture interfaces have more than
one set of audio inputs to choose from.)

analog inputs on your audio interface, choose a sample rate that matches the
majority of the media files in your project, or the sample rate of your sequence.
