    Does FCP accept wav files? I Just paid 70 bucs for a downloadable track from Royalty Free Music.com. This file will not open when I import it into my project.

    Yes it does. Does the file open in QuickTime? If so, try converting it to a 16 bit 48k .aiff and bring that converted file into FCP. If it doesn’t open in FCP or QT, the file may have been damaged on download.

    You shouldn’t have any problem with .wave files in FC. However if you can not open it in FC, try to export it with QT as .aiff. 48Khz and 16 bits.
    Cheers,

    As Ben says, If you can not open it with QT the file may be damaged on downlaod.
