Subject:differing sample rates

Hi.
I'm getting an error message in SF4.5 that tells me "The
source sample rate is lower than the destination sample
rate" when I cut and paste within a file. The error seems
to happen when I work on files that formerly were MPEG
files that have been converted to WAV.

I know I can change the rate to match the original by using
the Resample function in the Process menu.

But how do I find out what the original rate was? And how
can I avoid this problem in the first place?

Many thanks!
Eric

Hi Eric,

To find out the sample rate, right-click on the waveform
while the file is open in Sound Forge and select
properties. Under "Attributes", you will see the bitrate,
sample rate, and stereo or mono.

Ted H are you talking about 4.5? Cause I can see
no "Attributes" whatsoever in "Properties", and a search
for "attributes" in "Help" yeilded no results. Or am I
looking in the wrong place?

Thanks,
Eric

After having looked for the third time I've found it.
Right where Ted said it was. Thanks. Another mystery
solved
