I would like to import a file to use as part of a tribute piece but I am not sure how to convert the file from WMA to WAV to Audacity can import it. How hints?? ;)

If you are using Audacity 1.3.12 and have FFmpeg installed then you may be able to Import the WMA file directly into Audacity, and then Export it as a WAV file.
(see here: http://manual.audacityteam.org/index.ph ... tallffmpeg )

Otherwise, you could use SUPER by erightsoft to do the conversion.
You can probably use Windows Media Player to convert it, but I never use WMP so I'd not know how to do that.
