will add that file's directory to the Editor's recent list, and vice versa. When the box is unchecked, the two applications maintain independent lists.

Disable dragging samples to other applications. By default, you can drag samples out of the editor and drop them on the Windows desktop or Explorer, or into another application that accepts .wav files. However, this capability requires some overhead that can slow down drag/drop operations within the Editor itself, particularly for very large samples. If dragging samples causes the Editor to hang temporarily, check this box. You will still be able to drag samples and folders into the other Editor windows for mapping purposes. To export samples as .wav files, right-click on a sample or folder and use the "Export" function, since dragging samples outside the Editor will no longer work.
