sfconvert - convert between various audio formats

sfconvert was written by Michael Pruett <michael@68k.org>.

       This  manual  page  was written by Daniel Kobras <kobras@debian.org> for the Debian GNU/Linux system (but
       may be used by others).  It is based on the  sfconvert  plain  text  documentation  as  distributed  with
       audiofile.

Debian Project                                     March 2001                                       SFCONVERT(1)

       The sfconvert tool can be used to convert audio files from one audio format to another.  The files' audio
       formats have to be supported by libaudiofile.

       sfconvert - convert between various audio formats

       The following keywords specify the format of the output sound file:

       byteordere
              Desired endianness of output sample data. e may be one of big or little.

       channelsn
              Number of output channels. n is 1 for mono, and 2 for stereo files.

       formatf
              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),  bicsf  (Berkeley/IRCAM/CARL Sound File Format), avr (Audio Visual Research File Format),
              iff (Amiga IFF/8SVX Sound File Format), or nist (NIST SPHERE File Format).

       integerns
              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.

       floatm
              Produce floating point samples with a maximum amplitude of m (usually 1.0). This options  may  not
              be used together with option integer.
