| An audio segment contains recorded or sampled audio data, instead of editable note-event data. Rosegarden allows you to record, play, arrange and split audio segments, but does not contain audio waveform editing facilities. | An audio segment contains recorded or sampled audio data, instead of editable note-event data.

| To create an audio segment, you can [[doc:manual-en#recording|record]] from an audio source onto a track assigned to an audio instrument, or you can work with existing WAV files. To do this, you need to use the [[audiomanager-en|audio file manager]] **File → Manage Audio Files**. | To create an audio segment, you can [[doc:manual-en#recording|record]] from an audio source onto a track assigned to an audio instrument, or you can work with existing WAV files.

| | While Rosegarden cannot edit audio waveforms on its own, it //can// launch the audio editor of your choice (e.g. Audacity) when you double-click on an audio segment. Be aware that making changes and exporting them over top of the original WAV file is **destructive**, so make backups and be careful. Also make sure you export in the format Rosegarden expects: 32-bit float. Otherwise you will hear some very unpleasantly loud noise. |
