Combining Two Tracks (Combine)

This function allows you to combine any two tracks into a single track. The two tracks need not be consecutive, or chronological. You can use this function to combine several songs into a medley, or several independently recorded sections into a single track.

When you combine two tracks, the total number of tracks decreases by one and all tracks following the combined tracks are renumbered.

Example: Combining tracks B and D
Track	1	2	3		4
numbers
		A	B	C		D
COMBINE
			Combine B and D
	1	2				3
		A	B	D		C
