Hi Peter, OK, I’ve been able to consistently reproduce these results: If the clips Table has been searched and is displaying a filtered list of clips and the names of the clips don’t match the name of the audio files you’re trying to import, it will import the file but not to a new track. You can pretty much say that, if the Clips table is filtered in any way, you’ll have virtually no luck importing files to tracks. The solution is to display all files and new tracks will be created when you import audio.
If you have a clip you wish to drag from the Clips table to create a new track, do the following: Find the clip in the Clips Table. 2. Mouse down on it. 3. Stop interacting with the Clips Table and go and interact with the Tracks Table. 4. Mouse up and a new track will be created.
