I use a program which plays regions of various .wav

To where can I pipe its output, instead, to make a new .wav file,
or make a compressed file? Preferably faster than the region(s)
take to play.
Or, if not, make aplay write to a file instead of playing?
You can pipe into lame or oggenc as a possibility and yes, they have to create a header.
You have to advice them to get raw data and give
the header information using the flags.
man lame and man oggenc are your friends.
