MIDI/Audio Track/Load Audio

This menu item is available if the active document contains an audio track. Choose Load Audio to show the Open dialog box where you can choose the desired audio file. Finale allows you to load files in WAV, AIF, AIFF, AIFC, and mp3 formats. By default, the audio file is added to the beginning of the document. You can choose to adjust the start point of the audio file in the Audio Clip Attributes dialog box.

If your score already contains an audio file, a message appears warning you the current audio will be overwritten.

OK. Click OK to overwrite the existing audio track, replacing it with the one you have just chosen.
Cancel. Click Cancel to dismiss this dialog box and return to the document without loading a new audio file.
