- "Mix Master" v1.0 (c) 1988 by DUIABGTL Software.
- (Dreampt Up In A Boring Georgia Tech Lecture -aka- Jean Bulot)
-
- Mix Master is designed to be a companion utility for audio buffs. Mix
- Master will mix, slow, speed up, alter amplitude or negate a file. The mix
- option will let you mix digitial audio samples in the same manner that
- analog signals are mixed in a studio. Slow and speed up are options which
- allow you to change the playback speed by ANY percentage. Negate merely
- inverts the waveform, thereby allowing you to remove a sample by mixing
- the inverse of the sample ( -1 + 1 = 0, right? ).
-
- All files for Mix Master MUST be "DUMP" not IFF files! I have not had
- time to integrate IFF routines into the program. PerfectSound from SunRize
- Industries supports this option for creating sound files.
-
- Mix Master also needs LOTS of chip ram - try to give it as much as
- possible or the program will give an error message.
-
-
- Volume (Amplitude change):
- --------------------------
-
- USAGE: mm -v n in out
- n: percentage of adjustment from -50 to 100
- in: input file
- out: output file
-
- With this option, you can change the amplitude of the signal. A positive
- "N" will amplify the signal; "-N" will reduce the signal strength.
-
-
- Mix Samples
- -----------
-
- USAGE: mm -m in1 in2 out
-
- in1: first input file
- in2: second input file
- out: output file
-
- This option mixes digital samples in the same manner as audio samples
- are mixed in a studio.
-
-
- Negate Sample
- -------------
-
- USAGE: mm -n in out
-
- in: input file
- out: output file
-
- This option "negates" or flips a sample - thus by negating a sample you
- can "un-mix" sounds. I wrote this for my interest in backwards messages;
- by reproducing a sound and negating it, I could remove (for example) the
- guitar riff in a sample, thus leaving only the vocals behind.
-
-
- Speedup Playback
- ----------------
-
- USAGE: mm -f n in out
-
- n: percentage of speedup (range: 0 to 100)
- in: input file
- out: output file
-
- This option lets you speedup a sample by a percentage, "N". N = 100 will
- double frequencies. N = 0 won't do anything...
-
-
- Slowdown Playback
- -----------------
-
- USAGE: mm -s n in out
-
- n: percentage of splowdown (range: 0 to 100)
- in: input file
- out: output file
-
- Similar in concept to speedup, slowdown will slow playback of a sample
- by any percentage, "N". N = 100 will half frequencies, N = 0 won't do
- anything...
-
-
- 1) If you do any idiot things, this program will freak. You cannot
- give a negative speedup value for example. I purposefully designed
- the program with little error checking to keep it under 15k in length.
-
- 2) If you find this handy, send me some pocket change (College students
- are hungry (especially 17 year olds!) and constantly need food.)
