Uploading original material to SoundCloud

I have a profile on SoundCloud.  I mainly use Music Creator 6 Touch to record music on.  I am a multi-instrumentalist, so when I record songs, there are at least 2 tracks per project.  These are recorded as individual, separate .wav files, while the entire song is either a .cwp or .cwb file.  Now, whenever I've tried uploading something to SoundCloud, it'll only upload ONE of these track files.  I want ALL the files for the entire songs combined together, not separated.  SoundCloud won't upload the .cwp or .cwb files.  And the mp3 converter doesn't combine individual track files together, either.  So, my question is, how do I upload the song, in its entirety?  What do I need to do?  I'm sure I'm missing something, but have no idea what.  
 
Thanks for your help.

    You need to EXPORT the song project. This is also called "mixdown" where the tracks are all mixed down or exported to a single stereo wave. I think MC6 still used the WHAT YOU HEAR option for exporting.... select the tracks you want exported, choose export from the list..... choose your settings and press OK. Be sure to specify a destination in a folder you can find easily.
     
    Once you've done that, you can put it on Soundcloud  without any issues. I convert it to MP3 after I have it in it's exported wave.  Several song server sites prefer the song to be in MP3 format.
