Can one audio file (sound) be embedded within another so it sounds mediated by the envelopping sound? (lemmy.world)

Like when you dunk your head underwater and ambient noise becomes mediated through the water, can that be emulated digitally and how would that be approached?

Comment #2. So I played around a bit and got something muffled and a bit wobbly. It was basically mix of cropping out highs/mid-highs and adding various depth effects, mild hiss and some compression with actual water sounds that are playing super quiet. After all that mess, I EQ that again to get rid of any clipping or popping.

It's still not perfect but might be on the right track. I am in a road trip at the moment but I just randomized a piano and started slapping fx together. The fx are completely blown out on my phone speakers, but decent enough with headphones.

Here is what I am working with so far. You can see the fx chain in the right side. EQ -> Luxverb for depth -> Basic delay and reverb -> EQ #2 -> flange for a bit of hiss. (Track 5 hits the limiter on Track 1 for a bit of water-like wobble.) The first EQ low pass is purposely high. It creates a bit of distortion that kinda works.
