Don't know if this will work for you, but this is what I had to do.

First, I took the sound I wanted to record and turned it into a regular .wav file (not the 44/16 stereo deal).

Second, I burned the .wav to CDRW as an audio track (like a real song would be).

Third, I recorded the sound file from the CDRW to my hard drive in the 44/16 stereo as 001.wav (also one they don't have).

Last I put the the 001.wav into my audio folder and when I triggered it, it worked perfectly.

Hope this might give some kind of insight.

Sure! Tell me which sound file you want from the samples folder and I'll get it to you. It will be some time before I can get it to you, though, because I'm at work right now and have about 11 1/2 more hours to go.

Just let me know which one you need. There is probably an easier way to do this than what I'm doing with the CDRW, but I this is all I know.

Hey Nigel
try saving it as microsoft adpcm 44,100hz 4 bit stereo. I don't think 16 bit will work

That's right, I don't know what I'm thinking. It's not 44/16, it's 44Khz, 8-bit and in Microsoft ADPCM Wav format. Monolith mentioned that in another post dealing with sound/.wav files.

Try the format above, Nigel, and I'll still send you those 2 files after I get home tonight.

I think I might have said it was 8-bit, but 4 bit should be the default for one of ADPCM files, dont worry, it still sounds good. I ripped a 128k mp3 into wav and then into ADPCM wav and it still sounded great, I recommend music match jukebox to do the conversion and then Sound Forge XP or equiv to do the conversion to ADPCM.
