Importing a folder containing media files

It is possible to directly import one or multiple folder structures containing media files into your project. When you import a folder structure:

  • Wwise can optionally create container objects for each folder in the imported structure.

  • Wwise will copy the folder structure when copying the media files to the Original folder.

To import a folder structure into your project:

  1. Do one of the following:

    • From the Wwise menu bar, click Project > Import Audio Files.

    • Right-click an object in the Project Explorer hierarchy and select Import Audio Files from the menu.

    The Audio File Importer opens.

  2. Click Add Folders.

    The Select Folder dialog opens.

  3. Browse to the location of the media files that you want to import.

  4. Select the folders, and click Select Folder.

    The selected folders are loaded into the Audio File Importer.

  5. In the Object Type/Action column, select the object type you want to create for each folder you are importing.

    [Tip]Tip

    You can select multiple folder entries in the Audio File Importer and then select the Object Type/Action to quickly change those entries simultaneously.

  6. Click Import.

    The Importing dialog opens where you can view the progress of the file import process.
