ableton is the way to fly
actually after installing it last night..(and turning my appartment upside down looking for that green paper with the serial number for authorization) they offered free upgrade to 7
but it is Lite edition.. and after mucking about.. i couldnt seem to find a spot to throw any mp3 into any kind of timeline..guess its more video tutorials for me tonight.. im skippin steps I think here
And yeah FL is great for beatmakin I find, the link to controller options are great
so that u can set up funky setups
You have to select an audio track and drop it in.
If you're in session view drop it on a clip, if your in the arrangement view(the big timeline thingy screen) just drop the mp3 on a track.

tried both.. the weird thing too is that i drop it in (even tho its giving me a circle with diagonal line.. meaning im not supposed to be able to) and! (even tho the explorer should only be displaying files that I CAN drop into the program) well it does nothing.. and then! I can go in edit and UNDO my nothingness hahaha
made me laugh but must be somthing stupid im not doing right..
i was thinking could it be the codec from the mp3? i cut it from a full song and spat it out as an mp3.. though ableton says it takes em.. perhaps it picky about the compression or codec?
i use logic for stuff like that, abletons time warp helps alot for beginners. If your a video editor you should try soundtrack pro it should be able to what you want as well if your not using midi controllers and stuff
You might want to try a different file, or maybe even file format.
I sometimes too have a defective mp3, which also allows me to drop it in from the file explorer.
Ableton analyses the file, but comes back with nothing, a bar with no waveform in it.
Sometimes it does this when it cannot find the proper location of the file.
You could try to drop your MP3s in another(shorter) folder?
It could be a factor of not having the correct codec, or maybe just try to reinstall Ableton?
