Open: Audio File - MP3 Compatibility

[KennyO]

In a Session, in the Recorded Audio column, there is a feature - Open: Audio File.

WAV files open and playback perfectly.

MP3 files are greyed out and cannot be opened.

It would be great if you could add the abilitlity to open MP3 files to playback during a session.


Thanks!!

At one point, MP3 was not included because there was a royalty payment associated with using that format. My understanding (but I am not a lawyer) is that this issue has been resolved (though maybe not everywhere, which could be problematic) and MP3 can be freely used as a format by applications. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MP3#Licens...egislation (yeah, it's Wikipedia, but use it as a starting point). It would be handy to be able to use MP3 files.
