| | #REDIRECT[[HLS Sequence Creation Wizard]] |
| | |
| When you Open HLS, you are already creating a new sequence. You may only have one sequence open at a time. If you are working on one and want to start another one, save your current sequence, shut HLS down, and then restart HLS and work on the new sequence.

| "I always start out with audio, because everything I do is associated with audio."
| |
| - Joe Hinkle, 2-2-12
| |
| | |
| "The whole key to HLS is to tie everything, even pixel plane effects, to syncronize them to your music."
| |
| - Joe Hinkle, 1-25-13
| |
| | |
| Through all the changes to HLS in almost a year, the same principle remains true: Audio is where it begins. Therefore, the first step is to add the audio. (However, if you want a sequence without audio, select ''No Audio in this Sequence'' and move on to [[Time Resolution]].)

| ===='''Add a mp3 or wav file'''====
| |
| *Note: mp3 files were allowed starting with version 6V. If you want to convert a mp3 to a wav file there are free converter programs on the web. Here is a link to one of them -[http://download.cnet.com/MP3-to-WAV-Decoder/3000-2140_4-10060498.html mp3 to wav converter]

| *Choose a WAV or mp3 file for the music to be used in this sequence. Click on the '''Audio File''' menu item at the top of the HLS screen and choose "Add Wave or mp3 File to this Sequence". Figure 1-2 will appear.

| |
| | |
| | |
| *You will now name your sequence file and point HLS to where you want to save it
| |
| **Don't forget to follow the suggested [[Download and Installation##Folder_Hierarchy | folder hierarchy]] by creating a folder inside the '''HLS\Sequences''' folder with the same name as the new sequence.
| |
| ***In the example given, a folder named ''ChristmasCanonRock'' has been created in the ''c:\HLS\Sequences'' folder. Then, enter that folder and type the sequence name ''ChristmasCanonRock'' and click SAVE.
