Ircam Trax v3 offers a powerful suite of voice and sonic processing tools designed to transform audio with precision and creativity. Developed by the renowned sound analysis and synthesis team at Ircam, this collection features advanced signal transformation algorithms that enable users to manipulate key sound characteristics such as pitch, timbre, and duration. Its intuitive interface makes complex audio editing accessible, allowing producers and sound designers to explore new dimensions in voice and sound processing.

The suite includes three distinct processors, each tailored for specific sound transformation tasks. The Transformer module uses an augmented phase vocoder technology to modify expressive voice properties like gender, age, and breath, as well as other sound attributes including formant and pitch. The Source Filter processor breaks down the sound into energy and spectral components, enabling seamless blending of these elements with another sound’s characteristics for advanced filtering effects that surpass traditional morphing techniques.

Cross Synthesis completes the package by offering a spectral envelope morphing processor that blends the amplitude and frequency spectra of two sounds in real-time. Utilizing non-linear spectral features, it delivers unique and dynamic sound morphing capabilities, opening up a wide range of creative possibilities for sound designers, composers, and audio engineers. Together, these tools provide a comprehensive platform for innovative sound transformation and experimentation.
