You're not converting anything. a .alc file is a file that links to your sample or plugin.

Okay but then is it possible to have a Note Editor for .wav ? Like the "MIDI Note Editor" ?

Okay, i'd like to have the same grid there is for MIDI devices (check screenshot) for the .WAV samples. That's all!

If you have an impulse on that track. the press the fold button.
If you're actually talking about audio clips... There is no grid, only if you use the envelope editor there will be a grid.
