### Multi-channel

You can import a file with multiple channels.

### Polyphonic

If the content is polyphonic, ACE Studio will, by default, convert all overlapping notes into sustain notes after importing, as a singer track cannot synthesize polyphonic content, just as a human cannot sing in polyphony.

To import polyphonic content, hold <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> / <kbd>⌘Command</kbd> while dragging a file into ACE Studio. The content will be split into separate melody tracks.

## Import In-house Files

### Samples(.clips)

“\*.clips” is the format for samples in [creative library](/creative-library/samples.md). It contains tracks and clips.

To import a sample(.clips), just simply drag and drop into ACE Studio.

### Templates(.acet)

“\*.acet” is the format for templates in [creative library](/creative-library/samples.md). It warps the whole ace project folder as a pack.

Tp import a template(.acet), just simply drag and drop into ACE Studio.
