That's strange.  I'm using the same versions as you and the dropped file
imports just fine for me.  The filename I'm dropping is:

01 Test =C1.wav

Which has both spaces and a special character.  I've even tried trademark
symbols and just oddball characters.

Here's a screenshot of a file after I dropped it on the the main window and
started a record (for the heck of it):

Check out the title bar.  Is that the kind of special characters that you'r=

using?
