Hello there, I am looking for some good documentation or explanation on how to use the program "sox" that is used to convert from one sound file format to another. I am using the program x_soundtool and I am recording speech and it stores it in an audio file that is ulaw encoded 8-bits. What I would like to do is to convert it back to linear encoding and get the actual numerical values for futher processing. I have used the program "ulaw2linear" that converts I believe 8 bits ulaw to 16 bits linear(according to some documentation I read about file formats) but it puts a header which I don't know whether the header is only attached in the beginnig. I tried different possibilities but I don't seem to get any good results. Also, if I could get some information on how to use the program "sox" it would be great(how to use the different parameters such as -t, -b, -x etc). I would appreciate any relevent response. Feel free to send mail to the following e-mail address: Internet:rsl11@kuhub.cc.ukans.edu Bitnet: rsl11@ukanvm.bitnet Thanks.....
