The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for active sound management for vehicles. In one embodiment, a process for active sound management for a vehicle includes determining vehicle operation state and powertrain operation for the vehicle, and detecting sound generated by the powertrain operation of the vehicle. A synthesized sound may be determined for output based on selection of at least one frequency of the sound generated by the powertrain to drive a frequency of a sine-wave generator, synthesizing an output wave file with pitch shifting of frequency based on powertrain operation, and blending sine-wave generator output with the synthesized wave file to cancel unwanted powertrain noise and generate desired sounds for vehicles. Output of the synthesized sound may be controlled to provide simultaneous cancellation and synthesis in at least one same frequency range.
