Hello, Apologies if this is a simple question but I could not find an answer in the forum or tutorials. Assume that we use two different audio files (stimuli) spoken by two different people, but with the same file name, for example “happy.wav”, and each is used in a different study for a different purpose. Will uploading the stimulus for Study 2 overwrite the stimulus for Study 1 (creating a problem for that study) or are uploaded stimuli somehow automatically kept separate across studies in FF’s stimulus management system even if they have the same name. I have noticed that sometimes an uploaded stimulus has a long string of random numbers appended to its name and I wonder if this is something that automatically happens to keep stimuli with the same name separate across studies. We are using hundreds of audio stimuli across studies and there may occasionally be some common file names across these studies. Thank you!
