Batch Importing
Hello. Is it possible to import multiple audio files at one time into DP4? If so, will the track names appear as well? Thank you.

Re: Batch Importing
You really mean DP4? That's quite an old version. I think the way it works in newer versions is you can drag audio files onto the blank area on the left side of the tracks overview and it will create new tracks with the audio file in it. I've seen it done. I don't do that much myself. Anyway... someone else can maybe help more with that.

That's how it's done. The track names that result in DP 8 are the file names in the Finder in most cases.

Re: Batch Importing
Haha. I know, I was almost afraid to type DP4. But, yes, I am on 4.6 with a copy of 7 waiting to be installed. Finishing my last project on this, then big upgrade. I've tried every way, but nothing has worked yet on 4.6. I can import multiple files into the soundbites window, but not into the sequence. Still have to drag them over individually and type in the track name.
