Hi all,

I'm currently running a 2021 M1 Macbook Air. I've been trying to import an audio file into finale using MIDI/Audio -> Audio Track -> Load Audio, but I'm running into all kinds of problems. When I import a 44.1k WAV or AIF file, it plays back at a considerably faster speed. This obviously doesn't help me much when I need to compose using a consistent tempo and key :)

I've tried other file types (44.1k MP3s, WAVs and AIFs at different sample rates) and get the message that "Finale Cannot Open The Selected Filetype. Please select another file."

Let me know if you have any solutions for me! I need to be able to notate along to an audio file and I'm about ready to give up on Finale and switch to another notation program if I can't find a solution.

Thank you!
