No, but the "&" signs further along your command might be the problem.  
In your
original question you described a command containing

  sox "%~1" temp_outfile.wav silence 1 0.1 1% 1 0.1 1% : newfile : 
restart

Note the: "1 0.1 1% 1 0.1 1% "

I am not sure whether your command really contained all of that or had 
the
simpler "1 0.1 1" parameters in it.

I was trying to say that if you'd wanted  "1 0.1 1% 1 0.1 1%"  to work 
you
would have needed to code  "1 0.1 1%% 1 0.1 1%%", for the BAT file to 
use
the command you wanted.

If that's not what you were asking, you need to be clearer.

OK, so that's a different question.   "Not working" is not a useful
description of what is or is not happening.

What is in threebursts.wav?

What does happen?  How many files are produced, if any?

What did you expect/hope would happen?

Does the expected single action work properly if you omit the newfile
& restart?
