Recording .WAV Files

Another feature of the
Audio player is recording
your own wave files.  If you
have an audio input device
(such as a microphone or
a CD player), you can record an save your own wave files.  These can
then be used for things like error beeps.

To record your own wave file, click on the record button (the red circle).

Then will begin the recording.  You will be able to track the minutes and
seconds the recording has been active.  When you are finished, press
the stop button.

When you press stop you will be given the choice of saving, discarding,
or playing the wave file.

Choose Audition to replay the wave file, or to save it to disk, or discard to
delete it.

Using the Player

The audio player interface is similar to the interface of most CD players.
It includes stop, play, re-
wind, and fast forward but-
tons.

The buttons work the save
way they do on CD players,
once the CD or the wave file
has been loaded.
