Subject:Preview WAV's in ACID explorer

Is it possible somehow the make it default to ACID That it
does not see the WAV as loop based, but as a one-shot track
type? With the loop type , I get a lot of Wrong beatcounts
when I preview some Sample CD's I've got lying around.
Going through a directory is useless, while mostly every
file (sure voice and short onces) is garbled. Then I have
to dubbleclick to load it in and listen to it. That is not
why there is a preview function, is it?:-)

I know you've got the ACIDize the file to prevent this, but
all I want is to preview it first to see if I want to use
it at all!

But complex, but hopefully ya'd understand:-)

Hello Mike!

Unfortunately not, this is a good idea however and you can submit it
to our Product managers by going into the Support -> Product
Suggestion page.

Thanks!

I second this - an excellent idea, Mike.

I have thousands upon thousands of non-acidised loops that I of course
want to preview, with the same incredibly irritating result as you
mentioned.

Let's encourage SF to add this to the next update.
