2 In the dialog that appears, set the sample rate, bit depth, file format, stereo conversion,
and dither type for the destination files.
The new audio files are created in the same folder as your original audio file. The files are
also added to the Audio Bin, and all references to these new arrange regions are changed
to correspond with the newly created files.
These newly created files can be edited independently, allowing you to reverse, time
stretch, and more, without affecting other regions based on the same original file.
Converting Regions to a New Sampler Track
You can convert one or multiple regions or tracks into one-note/one-sample zones of a
new EXS instrument. This EXS instrument is set up on a new software instrument track,
which contains trigger notes to play the zones at their original positions.
To convert a region, or regions, to a new sampler track
1 Select one or more audio regions in the Arrange area.
2 Choose Audio > Convert Regions to New Sampler Track (or use the corresponding key
command).
