You can go to Preferences->Sound and set a sound file for Beep and that should get used instead of the default beep. Just make sure to test it with the Play button first.

What file type should the sound be?
I was unable to get any sound to play.

MP3/wav should work. Although that depends on the external program that gets used. Wav is probably the safest choice.

Ok. Is Winamp ok program for that?
What do put to place where it ask for external program?

On windows you should leave it on Automatic and use a .wav file. With the method set to Automatic the path is also limited to 255 characters.
