|
Also match incompatible mono samples as pairs. By default, when searching for |
59 |
|
potential mono samples that could be combined to true stereo samples, some |
60 |
|
sanity checks are performed. Thus if two mono samples have completely different |
61 |
|
characterstics (i.e. different fine tune setting, different loop types) then |
62 |
|
they are by default considered to be incompatible and will not be merged to a |
63 |
|
true stereo sample to avoid undesired audible errors in the modified file. Under |
64 |
|
certain circumstances you might want to circumvent this sanity check, for |
65 |
|
instance when you think that few cents fine tuning difference in the mono |
66 |
|
samples are no reason for you to not merge them into a stereo sample. In this |
67 |
|
case you can use this option to force the conversion. However certain |
68 |
|
fundamental incompatibilities are still not ignored, even if you use |
69 |
|
--incompatible, for example if the two mono samples have different bit depth, |
70 |
|
sample rate or loop start and loop end points, in such cases those mono samples |
71 |
|
will still not be merged to stereo samples, because the actual result of the |
72 |
|
merge under that condition will certainly not be desired. |
