__NOTOC__
[[File:Soundimporter.png|right|frame|'''Figure 1.''' The Sound Importer window.]]
The '''Sound Importer''' is part of the '''Sound Tool''' plugin that ships with the C4 Engine, and it generates sound resources in the engine's proprietary <code>.snd</code> file format.

The Sound Importer can be run by choosing '''Import Sound''' from the [[C4 Menu]] or by typing <code>isound [''name'']</code> in the [[Command Console]]. If the '''Import Sound''' menu item is selected (or name is omitted from the console command), then a dialog appears to let you select one or more files from the Import directory.

== Source Files ==

The files imported by the Sound Importer must be in uncompressed <code>.wav</code> format having either one or two channels (mono or stereo) with 16-bit or 24-bit samples. Any sampling frequency is allowed.

== Sound Settings ==
