Is there a bit of command-line-fu that could be used to combine two 2-channel WAV files
into a single 4-channel WAV file? In batch (I have a bunch of these to convert).
I suppose I could load up Ardour, import the files into Ardour, make tracks for them,
place them on the tracks, set my start and end markers, then export a mix.... btu there
has to be a one-liner somewhere (sox? sndfile-convert? something?) that'll just do
it.
Thanks.

I'm sure some SoX (http://sox.sourceforge.net/Main/HomePage) sorcery can
do it.
Quoting from the SoX documentation, under 'Input File Combining':
[...] f the `merge' combining method is selected, then two or more input
files must be given and will be merged together to form the output file.
The number of channels in each input file need not be the same. A merged
audio file comprises all of the channels from all of the input files; [...]
Bests,
Lorenzo

Thanks, that seems to do it!

Hey Ken!
If not sox, then ecasound:
ecasound -f:bit_depth,2,samplerate -a:1 -i stereo1.wav -a:2 -i stereo2.wav
-f:bit_depth,4,samplerate -chmove:1,3 -chmove:2,4 -a:all -o quatro.wav
Should do it, but didn't test it. In any case, it is possible to perform
that action.
Besdies that, there's of course csound.
Kindest regards
Julien
