If the name of the file is long, only the first part of the file name may be displayed.
The full filename will be displayed in a tooltip if the mouse is paused over a loaded key.
You will also see a white dot known as the volume and pan control, which can be used to change the volume and pan of each sound. Click on the volume and pan control and drag it up and down to change the volume of each sound and left and right to pan the sound to the left or right speaker.

In keeping with MacOS X conventions, sound files must have a standard extension to be acceptable to be dragged onto a keyboard. Such extensions include .mp3, .wav, .aiff and .au. Sound files without an extension will not be loaded.
To move a sound to another key, click on the original key and drag the sound icon to the new key.
To remove a sound from a key, play the key, then select the Edit→Delete command. You can also delete the key using it's context menu by holding down the Control key while clicking on the key, or clicking the right mouse button and selecting Delete.
