Hi,I have recently downloaded Audacity and was planning to use it to combine a couple of different files with just one induction. Only problem is is that I have no idea how to do this as I am not technically minded :? . If anyone has suggestions or advice I would be very grateful :) .

You asked about creating a playlist. This note tells the method I use. I hope members who use some other method will share with you too, allowing you to pick from multiple choices.

    Summary:
    1) Trim the files that will make up the body of the file
    2) Select a favorite induction & deepener and add it to playlist
    3) add the 'trimmed' files (the body) to the playlist
    4) Select a favorite wakener and add it to the playlist

    Tools Used:
    - Audacity (shareware available from http://audacity.sourceforge.net/)

    Detailed Instructions:
    1a) Open the Audacity program
    1b) Import a file that you want to trim (Project; Import Audio)
    1c) Select sections you don't want or need (induction / wakener) and cut them.
    1d) Export your work as an MP3, saving somewhere you can easily find later.
    1e) Close the file
    1f) Repeat steps 1b-1e as needed for each of your files

    2a) Open the Audacity program
    2b) Import the Induction you want to use (Project; Import Audio)
    2c) OPTIONAL - ADD THE DEEPENER YOU WANT TO USE
    2d) Save your project (File; Save Project As)

    3a) In Audacity, open the project you saved in step 2d
    3b) Import one of the files you trimmed and saved in step 1d
    3c) Align the trimmed file (step 3b) so that it begins playing after the induction (step 3a)
    3d) Save your Project
    3e) Continue adding files you've trimmed and saved. With each addition, align the new file to play in the right order. Save your work.

    4a) In Audacity, open the project you saved in 3e.
    4b) Import the Wakener you want to use (Project; Import Audio)
    4c) Align the wakener so that it begins playing at the end of the last of your trimmed files.
    4d) Save your project
    4e) OPTIONAL - ADD A BINAURAL OVERLAY
    4f) Export your work as an MP3. using a name that gives you pleasure.
Wishing the best to you as you pursue your hypnosis goals and as you learn to build the training file you want and need. Please be sure to stop back to this forum and give an update, okay?
