Yes, this can be done. Try something like this:
$ sox -t ul -c 1 -r 48k input -t ul output effects...
This seems to corrupt the header of the file too and then I cannot open it at all. Usually in Audacity, I would not touch the first 5% of the track assuming it contains the header information that should be left untouched.
So, I thought if I can split the header and the file contents into two file. That would be easy to run through sox.
I tried
I tried
$ sox -t ul -c 1 -r 48k water.bmp -t ul water_out trim 0 15 : newfile : restart
This should work because new headers aren't created while spitting and I checked this by merging these files back (I'm on windows)
$ type water_out* > water_databent.bmp
This get me the image again.
However, I processed one chunk with an audio effect and the file size reduced drastically from ~700KB to ~2KB. Would you know why did that happen? I did
$ sox -t ul -c 1 -r 48k water_out002 -t ul water_out002 echo 0.8 0.7 45 0.31
Now the files don't stitch back to the image either.
