[TriLUG] Re: mixing 2 mono wavs to 1 stereo

[Bill Whiting]

Interesting, I just looked for that same answer again.  Except this time 
I found a solution.
I'm trying to create a stereo wave so I can create a stereo mp3, but the 
same solution should work for you.
soxmix  2003-12-28-01-am.wav  2003-12-28-01-am.wav -c2 
2003-12-28-01-am-stereo.wav
takes a mono wave file and creates a stereo wav as output.  If you want 
to mix two different waves then do something like:
soxmix joe.wav mary.wav -c2 call.wav

I ran this on centos4.  Depending on your flavor of linux, that command 
might not be there.  It's new to me.
