I tried several ways and I liked the "remix -" option the most. What am I doing: I am programming a 4-voiced random music generator (in bash) that endlessly plays in the background bc I am fed up with available music. Wanna try it: https://github.com/noahsmindfuck/random_music_generator Is there a way to make the sounds sound like a piano instead of a pure sine? Or can i actually import/use preexisting curves of existing instruments (e.g. the 'pluck' that plays a guitar)? _______________________________________________ Sox-users mailing list Sox-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/sox-users
