Hi Peter, To get a detailed explanation of how the Import Audio dialog works, it’s best to read that section of the Pro Tools reference Guide. It explains everything pretty clearly. For now, however, what you’re doing is exactly right. If the Track radio button is selected, you should see a new track appear in the session. If you have selection chosen in the pop-up, I believe the clip should appear at the point shown in the Start field of the Edit window. Did you try tabbing in that track? By default, after importing, I’d imagine the clip would be selected in the timeline so the edit selection range should correspond to the new clip length. as a test, however, try pressing Return first (to get to the beginning of the timeline and then press Tab to jump to the beginning of the clip. As an alternative, you can try importing the clip to the session start instead. See if that works. If it does, You can simply select the clip, cut it and then paste it into the location you want in the timeline. Hope that helps. Keep us posted. best, Slau
