tool can be used to convert audio files from one audio format to another.
The files' audio formats have to be supported by
R libaudiofile .
OPTIONS
The following keywords specify the format of the output sound file:
byteorder e
Desired endianness of output sample data. e may be one of big
or little.
channels n
Number of output channels. n is 1 for mono, and 2 for
stereo files.
format f
Audio format of output file. f has to be one of the currently
supported formats: aiff (Audio Interchange File Format),
aifc (AIFF-C File Format), next (NeXT/Sun Format),
wave (MS RIFF WAVE Format), or bics (Berkeley/IRCAM/CARL
Sound File Format).
integer n s
Produce integer samples. n specifies the width of individual samples
in bits, s yields the encoding and may be one of
2scomp (2's complement signed data), or
unsigned (unsigned data). The integer and float options
(see below) are mutually exclusive.
float m
Produce floating point samples with a maximum amplitude of m
(usually 1.0). This options may not be used together with option
