I don’t think the .cmd lets me use %%:
“%%a was unexpected at this time”
Also:
“C:\sox.exe"' is not recognized as an internal or external command”
What I want to do is convert files within a cd using wildcards *.wav converting these to another fileformat i.e flac while also giving it its name and create the processed
In a new folder within the cd.
This is the closest I get but the naming is kind of strange
Mkdir converted
For %i in (*.wav) do sox "%i" -b 8 "converted/name_%i.flac
babar.wav (original fil)
n_babar.wav.flac (new file)
would be nice to just have the n_babar.flac

Hi,
I don't understand exactly, what you want to do. And it's not very different using sox with linux. May be this could help? This could be a *.cmd:
for %%a in (*.wav) do "C:\sox.exe" [...] "%%a"
pause
After sox you could give in your [paramters].
Regards
Thomas

Thanks for the reply. I am using windows 10 command prompt. Maybe not optimal but It’s kind of hard to know
which one to use if your not an experienced programmer. I have Git Bash, is this is what you mean? But I don’t use it
because I can’t get the set audiodriver to work as I could in the command prompt. In cmd.exe this is the first thing I do
set audiodriver=waveaudio and I am ready to go. I guess there is a simple way to set up this from bash but
I havn’t found any answer. The amount of questions quickly escalates
When I ran your first script inside bash it didn’t work
Just to make things clear:
I ran this inside of Git Bash from a chosen folder set as my cd
I also have to create a new folder within in this cd with mkdir?
Then I’ll use for F in *.wav ; do
sox $F -b 8
nameoffolder/$F
done
But It doesn’t work
But It would be nice to run it inside Command Prompt in windows 10.
I have been using sox in with cmd.exe because it worked for but most information I find using sox is on Linux
So maybe I should switch..

For the first question, I'll let the devs answer, but apparently sox doesn't batch.
For the second question, that's not a sox issue; it's a scripting question. What shell are you using? For bash:
for F in *.wav ; do
sox $F -b 8 mydir/$F
done
I'm guessing you use Windows CLI? For that I'd use this:
https://ss64.com/nt/for2.html -- so it looks like you just need %% instead of %, and a backslash between the dir name and the wave file name.

I have some problems getting these things to work:
1 I want the duration of a couple of soundfiles in a directory
sox --i -D kick_*.wav
the name of the sound files are kick_1.wav, kick_2.wav, kick_3.wav etc
but it doesn’t work with the wildcard.
2 If I want to batch process a couple of files in a directory and process/convert them to something else
And put the processed files in a new folder, how do I do that?
for %i in *.wav do sox "%i" -b 8 "n_%i" .flac
(also not sure of the conversion of the files when batching)
Best,
