Please do not post the same thing multiple times. The board software automatically flags certain posts as needing moderator attention. This happens the most often for new users. I'm pretty sure this is made clear at the time you attempt to post. Posting the same thing over and over again just makes that many more posts the moderators have to weed through later. This makes us sad. Don't make us sad. If your post/thread doesn't appear, just wait a while. Don't post it again. If it hasn't shown up by the next day, then you can try again. I normally go through posts in the mornings, and try to check a few times throughout the day, but I'm not here 24/7. There will typically be a significant delay before posts are approved. Just be patient.

Combining two m4a files

I can successfully combine two m4a files one after the other using AVMutableComposition and AVExportSession

    AVMutableComposition* composition = [AVMutableComposition composition];
    AVURLAsset* audioAsset1 = [[AVURLAsset alloc]initWithURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:audioFile1Path] options:nil];
    AVURLAsset* audioAsset2 = [[AVURLAsset alloc]initWithURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:audioFile2Path] options:nil];
    
    AVMutableCompositionTrack *audioTrack1 = [composition addMutableTrackWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeAudio 
                                                                      preferredTrackID:kCMPersistentTrackID_Invalid];
    
    [audioTrack1 insertTimeRange:CMTimeRangeMake(kCMTimeZero, audioAsset1.duration)
                         ofTrack:[[audioAsset1 tracksWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeAudio] objectAtIndex:0]
                          atTime:kCMTimeZero
                           error:nil];
    [audioTrack1 insertTimeRange:CMTimeRangeMake(kCMTimeZero, audioAsset2.duration) 
                         ofTrack:[[audioAsset2 tracksWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeAudio] objectAtIndex:0] 
                          atTime:audioAsset1.duration
                           error:nil];
    
    AVAssetExportSession * ex = [[AVAssetExportSession alloc] initWithAsset:[audioTrack1 asset] presetName:AVAssetExportPresetAppleM4A];


When I export, the resulting file is like 10x bigger than the size of the sum of the other two files. How would I combine the files but not have the file size be so big?
