Have a look at > its man page, ecasound(1). Actually, as much as I'd like to recommend this combination, I'll have to instead recommend using libsamplerate [1], and the sndfile-resample tool that comes with the package, directly: sndfile-resample -to 48000 foo44100.wav foo48000.aiff sndfile-resample -to 44100 foo48000.wav foo44100.wav Works great and with good quality. I've received some bug reports about resampling with the ecasound+libsamplerate combo, and the 44.1<->48 conversions seems to trigger this bug. I hope to solve this issue for the next Ecasound release (2.3.6/2.4.0). But for pure conversion+resampling, sndfile-resample is just an excellent tool and has no problems with 24bit audio.
