Hi.......
I'll be mixing a project in DP9 that was recorded in Tracks Live. I've never worked with Tracks Live—what will I get from that app? What should I ask for, in order to get it into DP?

Request BFW if you can, which the latest Live supports. That will bring along some meta-data (such as starting position) that may be useful.Rick Cornish wrote:Hi.......

Otherwise you'll just get normal wave files, which you can drag&drop or import directly to DP as usual.

Thanks, Robert. What is "BFW?"Robert Randolph wrote:Request BFW if you can, which the latest Live supports. That will bring along some meta-data (such as starting position) that may be useful.

[edited] N/M, Robert. BWF = "Broadcast Wave Format", which sounds like a basic WAV file with a few extension chunks.

Yeah, I mistyped. BWF is what I meant, sorry.
(I just typed BFW like 10 times in a row trying to write BWF above... )
