A simplistic answer to the original question is to take two sound
signals, one considered "noise" (e.g., "white noise") and one considered
to be "music" (e.g., "Beetoven's Fifth Symphony") and connect them
to two inputs on a mixer. Then start with one fader full on and the
other completely off. Gradually lower the first fader while increasing
the second until the first one is completely off and the second is
completely on. This will handle the assignment in the majority of cases.
Of course, there are more sophisticated ways to do it using FFT's.
