If you have multiple files selected, you can select the Append to current data window check box to add the
selected files to the end of the current data window.
Note:
When appending files to a data window, be sure to use files with matching formats, or perform any
required sample rate or bit-depth conversion before appending the files. If the formats of the selected files do not
match, they will play back at the target format without any conversion. If the sample rates do not match, for
example, pitch will not be preserved.
When the check box is not selected, multiple files will be opened to separate data windows.
Open as CD tracks Select this check box if you want to create a disc-at-once CD track when opening a file.
If you have multiple files selected, you can select the Append to current data window check box to add the
selected files to the end of the current data window and create a disc-at-once CD track for each file.
When the check box is not selected, multiple files will be opened to separate data windows.
Note:
Disc-at-once CD tracks must be at least four seconds long. If you select a file that is less than four seconds
long, silence will be added as needed.
Merge L/R to stereo Select this check box and hold the Ctrl button while selecting two mono files in the browse window. The two
mono files will be merged to the left and right channels of a new stereo file.
