I tried to translate the sentence into Spanish, but don't know is it correct. Thanks for help!

Choose a directory to keep .wav and .mp3 files.

My translation:

Seleccione un directorio para guardar .wav .mp3 archivos.

Which brings forth:

Seleccionar - Impersonal
Seleccione - Personal (formal)
Selecciona - Personal (informal)
