You may want to look into Octave which is like a free version of Matlab I use it to batch process / create 1000's of audio files at once. The time this takes will vary on the length and bit rate of your file. Here's some simple examples. http://homepages.udayton.edu/~hardierc/ece203/sound.htm Rick On Thu, Dec 8, 2016 at 8:59 AM, Dr. Mark Bugeja MD wrote: > I am able to process these files with Sony Soundforge.
