Working with the MediaBay
When you work with many music les, the MediaBay helps you to nd and organize your
content. After scanning your folders, all found media les of the supported formats are listed in
the Results section.
You can set up Favorites, that is, folders or directories on your system that contain media les.
Usually, les are organized in a specic way on your computer. You might have folders reserved
for audio content, folders for special effects, folders for combinations of sounds making up
the ambience noise that you need for a certain
lm take, etc. These can all be set as different
Favorites in the MediaBay, allowing you to limit the les available in the Results list according
to context.
By using the search and lter options, you can narrow down the results.
You can insert the les into your project by using drag and drop, by double-clicking, or by using
the context menu options.
