If the sample rate of your audio montage differs from the sample rates of the audio files that you want to insert into it, WaveLab Elements allows you to adjust either the sample rate of the audio montage itself or the sample rates of copies of the audio files, so that they match.
Prerequisite
On inserting audio files into your audio montage, the Mismatched Sample Rates dialog appears and warns you of a sample rate mismatch.
In the Mismatched Sample Rates dialog, do one of the following:
-
To set the audio montage to the sample rate of the audio files, click Change Audio Montage.
NoteThis option is only available if the sample rate is identical for all audio files and the audio montage does not yet contain any audio clips. The latter is the case when using a template, for example.
-
To create copies of the audio files and set them to the sample rate of the audio montage, click Convert Files.
As a result, resampled audio file versions are created in the Data subfolder of the audio montage folder. The process results in a 32-bit float file, without any dithering applied. The name of the file corresponds to the name of the original file, with the new sample rate added as a suffix. If there is an existing file of this name, it is not recreated.
