- This is Amiga release 3.3 of SOX, the Sound Exchange. It is strictly
- an Amiga port of the generic release of SOX r6 patchlevel 11. I
- have attempted to verify that all operations work properly, as they
- have in the past, but I cannot be exhaustive on this point.
-
- Documentation is a bit outdated, but the included Unix manuals are
- as up-to-date as anyone's.
-
- For those who don't yet know, SOX is intended as a general-purpose
- sound file converter. It is written in (more or less) standard C,
- and is not optimized for the Amiga. It is not fast, but it is
- thorough and something of a standard. SOX handles almost all current
- audio formats, and includes a number of nifty effects to boot:
- - 8SVX
- - AIFF
- - .voc
- - Sun/Next (.au)
- - RIFF-WAVE (.wav)
- - several weirdo PC formats
- - anything raw you can imagine
- - high-, band-, and low-pass filter
- - reverse
- - amplify
- - echo
- - vibro
-
- I'm bored, and will stop writing now. Please address bug reports, etc
- to dgc3@midway.uchicago.edu. I will evaluate the problem and forward
- it to the maintenance group if it is not Amiga-specific.
-
- Bye now.
