sox FAIL sox: Not enough input filenames specified
Usage summary: [gopts] [ [fopts] infile]… [fopts] outfile [effect [effopt] ]…
SPECIAL FILENAMES (infile, outfile):
- Pipe/redirect input/output (stdin/stdout); may need -t
-d, —default-device Use the default audio device (where available)
-n, —null Use the `null’ file handler; e.g. with synth effect
-p, —sox-pipe Alias for `-t sox -’
SPECIAL FILENAMES (infile only):
“|program [options] …” Pipe input from external program (where supported)
http://server/file Use the given URL as input file (where supported)
GLOBAL OPTIONS (gopts) (can be specified at any point before the first effect):
—buffer BYTES Set the size of all processing buffers (default 8192)
—clobber Don’t prompt to overwrite output file (default)
—combine concatenate Concatenate all input files (default for sox, rec)
—combine sequence Sequence all input files (default for play)
-D, —no-dither Don’t dither automatically
—dft-min NUM Minimum size (log2) for DFT processing (default 10)
—effects-file FILENAME File containing effects and options
-G, —guard Use temporary files to guard against clipping
-h, —help Display version number and usage information
—help-effect NAME Show usage of effect NAME, or NAME=all for all
—help-format NAME Show info on format NAME, or NAME=all for all
—i, —info Behave as soxi(1)
—input-buffer BYTES Override the input buffer size (default: as —buffer)
—no-clobber Prompt to overwrite output file
-m, —combine mix Mix multiple input files (instead of concatenating)
—combine mix-power Mix to equal power (instead of concatenating)
-M, —combine merge Merge multiple input files (instead of concatenating)
—magic Use `magic’ file-type detection
—norm Guard (see —guard) & normalise
—play-rate-arg ARG Default `rate’ argument for auto-resample with `play’
—plot gnuplot|octave Generate script to plot response of filter effect
-q, —no-show-progress Run in quiet mode; opposite of -S
—replay-gain track|album|off Default: off (sox, rec), track (play)
-R Use default random numbers (same on each run of SoX)
-S, —show-progress Display progress while processing audio data
—single-threaded Disable parallel effects channels processing
—temp DIRECTORY Specify the directory to use for temporary files
-T, —combine multiply Multiply samples of corresponding channels from all
input files (instead of concatenating)
—version Display version number of SoX and exit
-V[LEVEL] Increment or set verbosity level (default 2); levels:
1: failure messages
2: warnings
3: details of processing
4-6: increasing levels of debug messages
FORMAT OPTIONS (fopts):
Input file format options need only be supplied for files that are headerless.
Output files will have the same format as the input file where possible and not
overridden by any of various means including providing output format options.
v|-volume FACTOR Input file volume adjustment factor (real number)
-ignore-length Ignore input file length given in header; read to EOF-type FILETYPE File type of audio
-t|
e|-encoding ENCODING Set encoding (ENCODING may be one of signed-integer,
unsigned-integer, floating-point, mu-law, a-law,
ima-adpcm, ms-adpcm, gsm-full-rate)
b|-bits BITS Encoded sample size in bits
N|-reverse-nibbles Encoded nibble-order
X|-reverse-bits Encoded bit-order
-endian little|big|swap Encoded byte-order; swap means opposite to default-channels CHANNELS Number of channels of audio data; e.g. 2 = stereo
-L/-B/-x Short options for the above
-c|
r|-rate RATE Sample rate of audio
C|-compression FACTOR Compression factor for output format
—add-comment TEXT Append output file comment
—comment TEXT Specify comment text for the output file
—comment-file FILENAME File containing comment text for the output file
—no-glob Don’t `glob’ wildcard match the following filename
