Something like: sox myfile.wav -b 16 -e signed -r 22050 -c 2 myfile.raw will convert the wav file (whatever its format is) to a signed 16-bit stereo raw file. For raw files, you can also use special file extensions that specify the encoding ("myfile.s16" for example, for a signed 16-bit file). Adding "-V3" to the beginning of the command will print the full input and output specs, plus the filter chain required to do the conversion (if any). The sox and soxformat manpages are pretty comprehensive. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com
