IRCAM Trax is a powerful suite of three audio processors—, Cross Synthesis , and Source Filter —designed to manipulate the core properties of sound, particularly the human voice. Unlike standard pitch-shifters, it uses advanced phase vocoder technology to separate a sound's "source" (its pitch and breath) from its "filter" (its timbral character), allowing you to change a voice's age, gender, or even species without losing natural quality. Phase 1: Sound Design & Character Development
Use the and Source Filter tools to blend two different sounds into a single hybrid instrument.
