how to concatenate 2 or more sound files?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If you have Windows also, you can type the following command:

type sound1.wav sound2.wav > sound3.wav

This will put the sound1.wav and sound2.wav in the file sound3.wav.

Windows will delete the headers that are not necessary and the file will
play.
You can do the same with mp3, etc.
