Re: merging mono files

I cannot give any more information on where the loops and markers are. 
They are created using audio software.

It does not matter if SoX would not include features like these. I 
thought I'd make my perfectly legitimate request.... I tried.

I'll just have to be patient and do the job manually.

Thanks everyone for your interaction in trying to solve my difficulty. 
SoX was recommended to me by a friend with whom I create samplesets. I 
took up that recommendation but clearly this is not the software I need,

Apologies for any inconvenience caused. At least I got as far as merging 
two files using a bat process. Re-creating loops and markers and 
checking each is as much of a task as the process at hand so might as 
well just get on with it.

Best wishes to all,

Mark
