Upload multiple files

« to Riverside editor: Overview

Import external content recorded anywhere and edit or repurpose it on Riverside. Upload multiple files and choose to either combine them into a single multitrack recording or arrange them one after the other in the timeline.

Step by step

1. Log in to your Riverside account.
2. Navigate to the relevant studio.
3. Select the project where you would like to upload the files.

4. In the upper-right corner, click Create.

5. Click Import.

6. Click Select file.
7. Select media files on your computer that meet the requirements.
8. Click Open.
9. Next to These are different participants from the same recording session, check the box to combine all files into one multitrack recording. 
   If the files are not the same length, make sure each track starts at the same time to keep the audio and video in sync.
   • Leave the box unchecked if the files are unrelated or from different sessions, and you want to arrange them one after the other in the timeline.
10. Click Upload. 
    Keep the page open while the file uploads. You can leave it while Riverside processes it.

Good to know

When uploading multiple files at once, you can choose between:

1. Multi-track editing: Edit several tracks together as one recording session by layering tracks on top of each other in the timeline. Use when:
   • You have separate audio or video tracks from the same session.
   • You want to layer tracks on top of each other in the timeline so they play simultaneously.
2. Linear editing: Treat each file as a separate segment in your timeline, arranging them one after the other. Use when:
   • The files are not from the same recording session.
   • You're stitching together multiple scenes or combining different sources into one timeline.
