[linux-audio-user] how to change the bitrate of a wav file?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi All,

I have a wav file which cdrecord is rejecting, I believe because it is
24 bit rather than 16; here is the output from 'file':

taylor_oxley_dixon.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio,
Microsoft PCM, 24 bit, stereo 44100 Hz

Would someone be kind enough to tell me the command to convert this
file to 16 bit, please?  The sox manpage has only confused me.

I did try:

$ sox taylor_oxley_dixon.wav taylor_oxley_dixon.cdr
sox: Failed reading taylor, oxley and dixon.wav: Sorry, don't
understand .wav size

Thanks in advance,
Kenneth
