<p>
There are several ways to importing an audio or MIDI file into a
session:
</p>
<ul>
<li><kbd class="menu">Session &gt; Import</kbd></li>
<li>Region List context menu: <kbd class="menu">Import To Region List</kbd></li>
<li>Track context menu: <kbd class="menu">Import Existing Media</kbd>
</li>
</ul>
<p>
These methods are all equivalent: they open the <a
href="/adding-pre-existing-material/import-dialog/">Add Existing Media</a>
dialog.
</p>
<p>
Finally, you can also easily import files into your project by dragging
and dropping a file from some other application (e.g. your platform's
file manager). You can drag onto the
<dfn>Region List</dfn>, into the desired <dfn>track</dfn> or into empty
space in the editor track display.<br />
The file will be imported and copied
into your session, and placed at the position where the drag ended.
