Hello, I'm trying to search a program (with no success) that could used for speeding up an audio file to a certain length. I mean, I would have a audio file that has 40000 samples, and I would need it to be 40010. And the pitch of the file can/should change. All speed change stuff that I have found will take semitones/cents/procents as a input parameter. I would wan't to only input the exact length (in samples) that I need. My purpose is basically make bunch of files that are loopable and have equal length with each other. Does this thing exist or do I have to make it myself? Thanks! ..j _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user(a)lists.linuxaudio.org http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user

Thanks Dan! I will give it a try. I actually really need the length of the resulting audio file to be exactly what desired but as I'm not doing that hazard shifts this might work. And perhaps running same file through the script more than once would give the result I'm aiming at. More theoretical question is, are speed shifting algoritms actually using the ratio given to them or converting them to some other value before doing the conversion. And is the sample accurate 'speeding' even possible in reality, or is it always +/- couple samples. I tried to look at the SoX source but it was a bit too C:ish for me to give me an answer straight away. ......j Dan Richert kirjoitti: > SoX can do the job with some help.
