What is the first step to import audio into the sampler?

The first step to import audio into the sampler is to open the file browser, then drag it into the sampler. This method is intuitive and efficient, allowing users to quickly navigate to the desired audio file within the file browser. By simply dragging the file into the sampler, you ensure that the audio is integrated properly, ready for further manipulation and use within your project.

This process highlights the versatility and ease of use of modern digital audio workstations, where visual interaction with files can save time and streamline workflow. Unlike other methods, dragging the file directly eliminates unnecessary steps and provides immediate feedback as you can see the audio file being transferred into the sampler.
