What audio formats can I import into Veena?

Veena is an AI DAW with a personal music producer built in. Describe the song you want and CoProducer builds it with you — beats, chords, melody, arrangement and mix — as real tracks you can edit, mix and export. Free, in your browser. It imports WAV, MP3, M4A, AAC, OGG, Opus, FLAC, AIFF and CAF audio, MIDI files, and six video formats.

Why did my imported loop get the wrong tempo in Veena?

The first audio or MIDI file you import sets the project's tempo from the file. Since 22 September 2026, Veena checks a loop's tempo two ways before it commits, so an 80 BPM loop no longer reads as 160. If one still reads wrong, set the tempo in the transport bar, then use Match BPM in the clip's Waveform tab.

Is there a file size limit for importing audio into Veena?

Veena doesn't set a size limit on imports. Big files appear on the timeline straight away, finish loading while you work, then upload to your cloud storage in the background, and identical files are stored only once. Stem separation is the one limit: Separate into Stems accepts files up to about 95 MB, roughly 8½ to 9½ minutes of stereo audio.

Can I import a project from Ableton, FL Studio or Logic into Veena?

Not as a project file. Export each track from your old DAW as a WAV stem, and the parts you want to keep editing as MIDI, then drop them onto Veena's timeline, where each file lands as its own clip. From there CoProducer can mix what you brought, add parts around it or rearrange the song, and every clip stays editable.

Audio Import Problems in Veena: Formats, Tempo, Loading

Audio import problems in Veena come down to three things: a file format Veena doesn't read, a file that is still loading, or a tempo read that doesn't match the music. Veena imports 13 audio formats, MIDI and 6 video formats straight onto your timeline, free, so most fixes take seconds, and then CoProducer, your personal music producer, builds the song around what you brought.

What Veena imports

As of September 2026:

Type	Formats	What lands on the timeline
Audio	.wav .wave .mp3 .m4a .aac .ogg .oga .opus .flac .aif .aiff .aifc .caf	One audio clip per file
MIDI	.mid .midi	One clip and track per MIDI track or channel, each with an instrument picked from the file's General MIDI program. Channel 10 becomes drums
Video	.mp4 .m4v .mov .webm .mkv .avi	A video clip with its audio attached

Three ways in: the Upload button in the transport bar (its tooltip reads "Import Audio/Video/MIDI File"), Upload in the Library, or drag files straight onto the timeline, which reads "Drop audio, MIDI, video, or image files anywhere in the playlist." Projects saved by other DAWs don't open in Veena: export their tracks as WAV stems or MIDI and import those.

Audio import problems and their fixes

Nothing appears after you drop a file

The format isn't one Veena reads, so the file is skipped. Convert it to WAV or MP3 in the app it came from and import it again. The Upload button's file picker only offers files Veena can open, which is a quick way to check.

The clip is dim and reads "Loading audio"

The clip is on the timeline and its audio is still arriving: "Loading audio · 42%" means 42% is in. Veena draws the clip first so you can keep working, then brightens it when the sound is ready. Several files import side by side, and each one uploads to your Veena cloud storage in the background.

The clip reads "Audio unavailable"

The browser couldn't decode the file, which usually means it is damaged or uses an unusual encoding inside a familiar extension. Re-export it as a standard WAV or MP3 and import it again. On a clip that played before, hover the badge: "Audio couldn't be loaded" means you can click the clip to try again.

The loop plays at double or half speed

The first audio or MIDI file you import sets the project tempo. Since 22 September 2026, Veena checks a loop's tempo two ways before committing, so an 80 BPM loop no longer reads as 160. If a tempo still reads wrong:

Set the right tempo in the transport bar: drag it, or tap it in.
Select the clip and open its Waveform tab.
Click Match BPM. In Match Project BPM, correct the Original BPM field and confirm. Veena stretches the clip to the project tempo, and the pitch stays where it was.

Parts of a MIDI file are missing

MIDI tracks with fewer than 4 notes are left out, since they are almost always tempo maps or single stray hits, and a file with no notes adds nothing. Every other track arrives as its own clip. If an instrument guess is wrong, change it on the clip's Instrument tab, or ask CoProducer to "swap the piano on track 3 for Strings".

A video's sound isn't on its own track

Right-click the video clip and choose Separate Audio. The sound becomes a normal audio clip you can edit, split into stems or build around.

The file is too long to split into stems

Separate into Stems takes files up to about 95 MB, roughly 8½ to 9½ minutes of stereo audio, and returns vocals, drums, bass and other on new tracks, lined up with the original. Import a shorter section of a longer file.

On an iPad, the file picker has accepted audio and MIDI files since 4 September 2026. More in the Veena help centre: stem separation in Veena, recording audio and MIDI and export problems. To split any song you bring, try the free stem splitter.
