Importing Audio Files to CTA 5

Hi Everybody:
I’m new to CTA 5, as you’ll soon see.
I’ve been able to animate some animal photos, so there’s a victory.
I’ve been trying to import some MP3 audio files to synch up with the characters, and I am unable to import more than the first minute or so of the audios (the MP3’s are 11 minutes, 19 minutes, and so on, all much less than the 30-minute limit). The MP3’s get cut off after about a minute.
My best guess is that this is a real simple thing I’m doing wrong, but I’ve been unable to get past this point.
Anyone else having similar trouble?
Ken M.

Hi…

Are you changing the project length to accommodate the length of the audio file?

By default the Project length is set to 1 minute but it can be set up to 15 minutes or 27000 frames. You can change this in Project Settings (CTRL+SHIFT+P).
