It's a while latter, and I'm still not able to convinces myself that I could
what is being said.

No argument there, Paul.

Paul, the far bigger problem - vastly beyond our current technology - is to
understand what the blazes you are on about.
Several people have replied to you in good faith, trying to help, but I for
one now give up.
We've all said, again and again, that SoX doesn't do speech to text. But as
you've so brilliantly discovered a better way than "very complex
mathematical algorithms to work out what are words and what are not words,
and then to work out what the word might be" by simply applying the Sox echo
effect, you're just too advanced for mere mortals. Patent it, and then sell
it to Nuance (the Dragon Dictate people).
Whatever your astonishing breakthrough may or may not be, it's certainly
nothing to do with SoX.
Jan Stary, can you spare me some blood pressure tablets - I need them !
