How to add/insert a music file with Sound Forge Pro 14 was created by pioneer

Good afternoon. I have a piece of music that I wish to add/insert/merge a cymbal crash file into the main piece of music at various points , what is the best way to achieve this please. Or is it not possible?  I would prefer to do this in Soundforge Pro14, but I have figured out a workaround to do it in Sonicfire 6.  thank you John

Technically speaking, the best tool to use would be a Music Creation program like Acid Music Studio, Acid Pro, Magix Music Maker, Magix Samplitude, etc...
All of these programs use multiple tracks, so you would just add the cymbal crash onto a track above, at the points it needs to be.

Sound Forge is not really set up for creating (constructing) original music.
Sound Forge is for Editing, Cleaning, Mastering, etc...

The solution I would use for a one off project
However, if you have Vegas Pro or Vegas Movie Studio, you could use those programs to do the same thing.
Vegas can be used a Music creation program as well - it's not limited to only Video creation.
In Vegas you can render/output to .wav or .mp3 audio file only.

Good morning Derek.  Of course you are right.  I had not considered using Vegas Pro.  thanks once again.
