Hello, guys.
I am having trouble mixing two audio files.
I am looking for some info on "Mixing Two Audio files using the Right Shift by two bits".

Any kind of help is much appreciated.

Thank you.

What is the program specification? That is: Exactly what is the program required to do. Exactly. What have you tried?


In general, "mixing" audio is conceptually simple if the files contain audio values taken at the same sample rate and they both start at the same time and have the same number of samples.

Here's the drill: For each sample time, add the sample values and divide by two.

To avoid overflow, instead of adding and then dividing, you probably want to divide each sample by two and then add.

For integer data types (signed two's complement or unsigned), dividing by two is equivalent to shifting right by one bit.

Regards,

Dave
