looking for software to "mix" sounds

hi. im looking for software to "mix" two sounds together. im not too sure exactly how i want it to be done. i imagine it to be something like a combination of two wave forms, to form a new "hybrid" waveform

any ideas?

wtf

any wav editor can do this son

why dont you go ahead and explain how...son

dont feed the troll

you mean like ring modulation? or convolution? you can do both in max.

i just read the wiki page about ring modulation. it seems to be what im looking for. i dont know how id use it though. ive used ring mods before, and they just ring loudly. nothing about combining two separate sounds. i dont know any thing about convolution.

i also dont understand max, yet, so i think im looking more along the lines of a plugin or some other method i can do in live

You could try acoustic mirror in sound forge, not sure if it does exactly what you want, but you can interesting results w/ it

sorry no soundforge thx anyway

what you need to do is record your wavs onto two CDs and buy/use two stereos to play them both at once. position a good quality multi directional mic somewhere between the two stereo's speakers and record the result. voilà!

there was a piece of hardware I read about that could do this, but it cost like $2,500, and also I can't remember its name.

so instead I nominate this post for "most useless WATMM post".

traktor (you can play them at the exact same time and voilà)

there is a piece of software that engineers use to merge multiple vocal tracks into one. You can take 2 singers, and it will merge the aves in a way that they sound like one new person. You could do something similar with a vocoder using 2 inputs (formants) instead of 1 input and one osc. Don't know of any specific vocoder that can do that, but theoretically that is exactly what a vocoder does.

this.

also kyma seems to tout it's "tau synthesis" as being super good for sound morphing (a slow transition from one timbre to another) so i imagine using that and stopping it half way would damn near achieve what you want. look it up, also try not being a huge dick next time you ask people for help.

i ran out of edit time..

convolution might be what you want, but it probably isn't. in math it's sort of viewed as a way of tweaking a base function with another one, but there will always be one dominant one if that makes any sense. ring modulation is likely not what you want, as it's just the product of two signals (though this can work better than one would expect). perhaps you could provide more insight as to what you're trying to do?

I think this is what you're looking for: http://www.symbolicsound.com/demo-morphing.html

yep that

ehm. i imagine what youre looking for is a modulation sort of thing and if this is the case you can just copy one waveform in edison and modulate another against it. this all comes with the demo version of fl studio

jesus christ you lot.

prosoniq morph is what he wants.

it ends up a bit 'mp3-ish' but does sound morphing.

holy fuck that Kyma thing is amazing....

Yeah this does a pretty good job of being the "economy" version of kyma morphing.

vocoder

Use a vocoder. I'm pretty sure you can get ones with dual inputs to modulate one sound with another? If not this might do it for you Copyrighted link removed

Just read the other posts. Foolish me.
