How to concatenate compositions

What is the easiest way to combine several NWC files together one after the other so I can export a single MIDI file with more than one song. This seems especially difficult with multi-part arrangements and different instrumentation, but maybe I'm overlooking something.

Thanks for any ideas.

When chaining songs together into one midi file, you should make sure that tempo, dynamic, and instrument patch settings are all set at the beginning of each song/section, so that different, independent sections do not interfere with eachother.

So do we export various songs or movements to a common midi file and it appends, or do we combine the NWC files by pasting (appended) one line at a time to the NWC file and then export to a single midi file?

I suspect that this isn't the correct program for "stringing"
midi files together unless you are going from one piano piece
to another or from one same size orchestra to another.

You COULD continue on only those staves which apply to a
second song, but if you had to create NEW ones, to accomodate
MORE instruments, then you'd have to paste BOTH into an
orchestral "template" with enough "blanks" to accomodate the
channels you required.

There has to be a better way . . .
