Hi everyone,
I am working on a project but I am having issues importing a mp3 file in my timeline. I don't know for what reason my file is 29 seconds but when I drag it inside the project I actually miss at least 2 seconds which cut the sentence and make my audio useless. Does anyone know how to fix this issue or why is this happening?
thanks everyone for your help
As Vidya suggested....convert to wav in audition. open the mp3 in audition, select 'save as', choose wav format, make it something like what you see below … if it is a stereo file … if mono you can choose that too.
is fast and easy and is best sound file to use in all your editing ( either wav or broadcast wav is best for editing ).
If you have other sound files ( like from smart phones, etc. ) you can do the same thing...convert to wav.

We’re so sorry to hear about the import issue, ibracadabra224. MP3 is a highly compressed file format and can give issues.
Convert the file into WAV, import it and check if the issue persists.
What is the source of the MP3 file? Please check if it is happening with all MP3 files.
Thanks,
Vidya

P.S. I use CS6 so menu might look slightly different than what you use, but the gist is the same.

Hi Vidaya,
thanks so much for your help. as you suggested I converted the file in wav and now it is working properly. I had this problem with only one mp3 recorded from an I-phone but the other mp3s were ok. thanks again.
