The audiophile version has both WAV files and same-named WMA files together in each folder of RealTracks. If BIAB finds a WAV file, it loads it. Otherwise it loads, then uncompresses, the WMA file.

You should be fine. As Noel said, just make sure Preferences, RealTracks points to the location of the Audiophile files.

About existing songs, it’s possible you should unfreeze any songs that are frozen. I’m not sure if this is necessary but it’s easy to do. I will get the answer.

You might find the article I wrote on the differences between the audiophile and regular versions to be of interest. It’s the first sticky post in the Tips and Tricks Forum.
