How to add a different audio file to each slide for narration?

I want to add a different audio file to each slide for narration.

I can use the ribbon to insert an audio file for each slide. Manually doing it takes forever.

I can't locate in the VBA PowerPoint docs what object to work with.
When I search for audio, insert audio etc. I get nothing helpful from MS PowerPoint docs.

To add audio file, use AddMediaObject2 method under Shapes object. (Documentation)

Example of adding an audio file to the first slide of your current presentation:

Application.ActivePresentation.Slides(1).Shapes.AddMediaObject2("Audio file path")

You can also set a variable to the Shape returned by the method for further modification:

Dim newAudio As Shape
Set newAudio = Application.ActivePresentation.Slides(1).Shapes.AddMediaObject2("Audio file path")
