Match to output two synchronized files

[amoebasinger]

Hello to all on my first post!

As a complete noob who has not used this software, I ask is it possible to synchronize two recordings of the same event made from different systems and in some way resample or otherwise affect one of the recordings so that output can be saved of the two files then synchronized.

Thank you in advance, and if no, is there any other suggestion.

The short answer, I'm afraid, is "no".

Sonic Visualiser allows you to change the playback speed yourself while playing a file, and can use the MATCH plugin to calculate alignments between files, but it doesn't have any capability to stretch one file to align with the other one during playback -- it simply plays file one or the other on its own, and when you switch the current file, it uses the alignment to switch to the "right" place.

I'm afraid I don't have any good suggestion to hand of a piece of software that might do this.  It's technically possible, and there is sure to be something out there that does it... but I don't know what.  I don't think it would make a simple extension to Sonic Visualiser, for various "architectural" reasons.
