Hi amadeus users,

Joining files is easy. Here's how I do it:

1. Open amadeus, the sound menu and then join files. This dialog has a listbox 
and 2 buttons. To begin with, of course all files you are going to join, must 
be in the same audio format.

2. Hit the add button. If it's not labeled, use the first one after the 
listbox. An open dialog opens.

3. In the open dialog, simply select the first file by highlighting it, and 
then hit the open button. The open dialog disappears.

4. You are now back in the join files dialog. The listbox that was empty when 
you hit add, should now contain the first filename you just selected.

5. Keep adding files one by one as described, until you have them all in the 
listbox.

6. Now that all files are in place and in order, according to the listbox, hit 
the join button and Amadeus will go to work.

7. Amadeus will work a while, depending on the amount of audio you gave it, but 
it will still finish relatively quickly. Once the job is done, you are then 
thrown back into amadeus, into the normal edit view. What you have here, is one 
big audio file, with all files joind. Just skim through the file to make sure 
the joints are okay.

Note: once in the open dialog, you do not need to select each single file one 
by one, going through the open dialog for each file. Instead, you can also 
choose files contiguously, by holding the shift key as you arrow down the list. 
So, focus on the first file, hold shift, and then slowly arrow down. Not VO 
down, but just down arrow, while holding shift. Each file you land on is 
selected. If you then hit open, all files you selected will be in the listbox 
and then you can hit join.

Hth,
Paul.
