Hi,

I am not too sure if Maya can do this but it doesn't hurt to ask. I am wondering if it is possible to use a music file as a deformer.

So I would be looking to materialise sound within an object such as a cup & saucer, wine glass etc.

Any help would be fantastic,

Cheers

As far as I was aware it had no audio manipulation tools, just std playback for lip synch, could be wrong?????

What I mean by 'music as a deformer' is the possibility of using the sound waves of a song as a manipulator. The aesthetic will be very similar to a wave deformer but I would it to change with the beat of music.

Thanks
