Convert WAV To BMP And Back

On RentaCoder one of the other coders thought I just wanted him to
change the extension from WAV to BMP. Another coder brought up the
complexities of actually converting WAVs to JPGs and back again,
because JPGs are compressed. And someone else asked me how they could
actually convert it. It is easiest if we work with BMPs and WAVs
because if we worked with BMP image files you just have to get into the
binary code of the file, and swap the headers around. So as long as
photoshop thinks the WAV is a BMP file you will be able to see what it
looks like and modify it. But I don't expect a graphical
representation that looks like a traditional wav file. I expect a 1
dimensional colorful psychedelic mess. I might have to add more
dimensions to the image, depending on the frequency of the samples in
the music. It just depends on how many colors I have to work with.

It would be nice if we could do all of this live, and while I was
editing in photoshop it could show me a convenient display of what the
WAV file was intended to look like. But we will need to run
experiments to see how the file size of WAVs and BMPs relate to the
headers. The content of the files doesn't matter it is all 1s and 0s,
the headers determine the size.

I would like to be able to blend music in photoshop by mixing layers of
wav files. I can take two recordings of someone singing the same song,
and blend them together in photoshop. An example could be taking a
robot voice that sings a song, and then blending it with my voice while
I am singing. To create a more realistic robot. This is one of the
techniques they are using to make music in holywood.

I have the software to do the job now. I've downloaded 010 Editor,
which is a Hex Editor that understands how to interpret binary file
formats and has a scripting side program that can let you make
automatic conversions between files. Sweet!
