|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Adding in Debian's disk full fix (#313206).
|
||
|
|
o Finally got rid of reference to cleanup() function in
|
||
|
|
library. Applications are now required to detect
|
||
|
|
all failures from return codes and cleanup as they
|
||
|
|
want.
|
||
|
|
o Changed how list of formats and effects are stored internally.
|
||
|
|
Effects libst users only. Dirk
|
||
|
|
o Store effects usage so that its accessable by applications.
|
||
|
|
Dirk
|
||
|
|
o Modify the synth effect to not use SIGINT to stop processing
|
||
|
|
and instead return ST_EOF. This allows exact acount of
|
||
|
|
samples to be written out instead of an approximate amount.
|
||
|
|
o Fix hangup when attempting to write stereo MP3 files.

o Fix deemph effect would lose stereo separation. (1479249) robs
|
||
|
|
o Adding cross-platform support for getopt_long
|
||
|
|
o Make help screens print much more information and add
|
||
|
|
new --help-effect option. (Originally from Dirk).
|
||
|
|
o Add support for using an external gsm library instead of
|
||
|
|
just the internal one. Vladimir Nadvornik
|
||
|
|
o Updates to nul file handler to prevent crashes during output.

------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o The "filter" effect could go into infinite drain mode. Now
|
||
|
|
only drain 1 buffer. noisered as well.
|
||
|
|
o SoX was ignoring user aborts (ctrl-c) if it occured during
|
||
|
|
effect drain operations. This was bad if effects had
|
||
|
|
bugs and stuck in infinite loop.
|
||
|
|
o Stop SoX from crashing when file type could not be auto
|
||
|
|
determined (1417776).
|
||
|
|
o Output filenames with multiple '.' confused SoX. (1417776)
|
||
|
|
Christian Hammer
|
||
|
|
o Moved to a common set of CLIP routines. This fixed clipping
|
||
|
|
bugs in noisered and mcompand.
|
||
|
|
o Stop SoX from crashing on sphere files that contain large text
|
||
|
|
strings. (1430025) Ulf Hamhammar
|
||
|
|
o Fix some overflow crashes in aiff handler. (1430024) Ulf Hamhammar.
|
||
|
|
o Under windows, set piped input/output to binary mode (1417794). Martin
|
||
|
|
Panter
|
||
|
|
o Fixed broken internal version of strdup(). (1417790) Marty
|
||
|
|
o Stop infinite loop when reading MP3's with a tag size of
|
||
|
|
exactly 8192 bytes. (1417511) Hans Fugal
|
||
|
|
o Fix typo in stlib.dsp for loading in Visual Studio 6.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed problems in silence effect related to removing multiple
|
||
|
|
periods of silence from the middle of the sound file.
|
||
|
|
o Reduced the window size greatly on the silence effect to
|
||
|
|
prevent leaving in silence that looked like noise still based
|
||
|
|
on RMS values.
|
||
|
|
o Prevent infinite loop in pitch effect from uninitialize variable.
|
||
|
|
Frank Heckenbach
|
||
|
|
o Prevent crashes when printing error mesages (1447239)
|
||
|
|
o Added makefile and support files to compile using Open Watcom
|
||
|
|
compiler. (1417798) Marty
|
||
|
|
o Stop calling flow() on effects that returned EOF during drain(). Allows
|
||
|
|
two back-to-back reverse effects to work.
|
||
|
|
o Added support for multiple channels in .dat files.

sox-12.17.9 2005-12-05
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Updates to compile under VC6. Jimen Ching
|
||
|
|
o Declare st_signalinfo_t to specifically be signed in case
|
||
|
|
platform does not default ot signed chars. This
|
||
|
|
is required for NetBSD/powerpc.
|
||
|
|
o When seek()ing in AIFF, SMP, and WAV handlers, remaining samples were
|
||
|
|
incorrectly computed based on bytes and not samples. Jukka
|
||
|
|
o Changed noisered effect to just warn during clipping instead
|
||
|
|
of aborting. Ian Turner
|
||
|
|
o Fixed bug were pieces of audio were lost every buffer read
|
||
|
|
when running both -c and -r options together on mono audio.
|
||
|
|
Users probably percieved it as shorter audio files that
|
||
|
|
played with a sped up tempo.
|
||
|
|
Bugfix will also apply to other times when multiple effects
|
||
|
|
are ran on the command line.
|
||
|
|
o Added support for -V option to play/rec scripts.
|
||
|
|
o Fix to silence effect to allow negative periods to be specified
|
||
|
|
(to remove silence from middle of sound file).
|
||
|
|
o Fix swap option handling so that special case of "swap 1 1" will
|
||
|
|
work.
|
||
|
|
o Track length of Ogg Vorbis files on read.
|
||
|
|
o Add support for displaying a status line that tracks progress
|
||
|
|
of read/write routines. Part of information requires read
|
||
|
|
file handlers to be able to determine file length.
|
||
|
|
o Converted alsa driver to use asoundlib instead of directly
|
||
|
|
talking to kernel driver. This also means that device names
|
||
|
|
are now the ALSA logical names instead of /dev type names.
|
||
|
|
o Added ALSA support to play/rec scripts.
|
||
|
|
o Added st_open*, st_read, st_write, st_seek, st_close routines
|
||
|
|
to help simplify developer interface to libst. See libst.3..
|
||
|
|
o Removed st_initformat(), st_copyformat(), and
|
||
|
|
st_checkformat() from library. If your app used those
|
||
|
|
functions then copy them from 12.17.8 source code
|
||
|
|
directly into your application or update to use new
|
||
|
|
routines.
|
||
|
|
o Force word-alignment on AIFF SSND and APPL chunks on input.
|
||
|
|
Matthew Hodgson.
|
||
|
|
o Add fix to WAV handler to only return data in multiples
|
||
|
|
of sample_size*channels to better handle corrupt files.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed bug where "-4" option didn't work with avg
|
||
|
|
effect (Tom Christie).
|
||
|
|
o Fixed fade's fade-out-length to match man page
|
||
|
|
description as noted by Geoff Kuenning. This required
|
||
|
|
updates to the sample crossfade scripts. Also modified fade
|
||
|
|
effect to report when no more samples will be produced to
|
||
|
|
prevent unneeded reading of whole file.
|
||
|
|
o Allow aborting SoX with SIGTERM, along with previous SIGINT.
|
||
|
|
Norman Ramsey.

sox-12.17.8 2005-08-22
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o noisered effect had compile problems with some compilers.
|
||
|
|
o "-x" option was being ignored since 12.17.7.
|
||
|
|
o Stuart Brady added support for reading and writing RIFX files (big
|
||
|
|
endian RIFF/WAV files). Also added support for auto detecting
|
||
|
|
DEC-style ".sd\0" files.
|
||
|
|
o Gene Mar found typo in polyphase nuttall calculation.
|
||
|
|
o SMP buffer overflow (detected by gcc 4.0). Reported by Marcus Meissner
|
||
|
|
and Matthias Saou.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed URL in manpage to resample overviews.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed WAV handler so that it didn't think WAV chunks with max size
|
||
|
|
were invalid chunks. This allows WAV's to be used in pipes since
|
||
|
|
they have to default to max size.
|
||
|
|
o WAV files with alaw or ulaw data don't need extended format chunks.
|
||
|
|
(Lars Immisch)
|
||
|
|
o In AIFF files, fixed problem were short comments should cause
|
||
|
|
AIFF handler to get confused and become misaligned.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|

sox-12.17.7 2004-12-20
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Christian Weisgerber sent patches to man page fixes
|
||
|
|
and patches for sunaudio driver on openbsd.
|
||
|
|
o Default volume for soxmix wrongly set to 0 instead
|
||
|
|
of 1/#_input_files (float rounding error).
|
||
|
|
o Update to ALSA driver to do a better job of detecting
|
||
|
|
unsupported sample rate/size/encoding and change to
|
||
|
|
a supported one.
|
||
|
|
o Fix bug in alsa writing were last last partial buffer
|
||
|
|
wasn't being flushed.
|
||
|
|
o Guentcho Skordev pointed out ogg vorbis files were using
|
||
|
|
the same value for serial numbers each time.
|
||
|
|
o Changed sox to only read the exact size of a WAV data chunk
|
||
|
|
if cooledit IFF LIST chunk is found at the end of the file.
|
||
|
|
Normally, this isn't done to allow reading > 2gig WAV files.
|
||
|
|
o Modified configure to detect cygwin compiler after detecting
|
||
|
|
gcc compiler (fixes some default CFLAGS options).
|
||
|
|
o Added explicit rule for compile *.o from *.c so that
|
||
|
|
CPPFLAGS is always referenced. Not all platform's default
|
||
|
|
rule includes CPPFLAGS (FreeBSD).
|
||
|
|
o Under linux, add include path to /lib/modules/* so that ALSA
|
||
|
|
include files can be auto detected.
|
||
|
|
o Ian Turner added an effect to remove noise from an audio
|
||
|
|
file by first profiling silent periods of the audio
|
||
|
|
to determine what the noise is (like background hiss on
|
||
|
|
cassette tapes).

|
|
sox-12.17.6 2004-10-13
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Changed comment code to always use copies of strings to
|
||
|
|
fix bug in WAV handlering freeing argv[] memory.
|
||
|
|
o Use calloc() to create ft_t structures so that all
|
||
|
|
memory is initialized before being referenced.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed VOC EOF bug were it thought there was an extra
|
||
|
|
block when there wasn't.
|
||
|
|
o Restructured directory layout so that source code is in
|
||
|
|
a seperate directory.
|
||
|
|
o Modified SoX to accept multiple input files. Concatenates
|
||
|
|
files together in this case.
|
||
|
|
o Removed map effect so that loops and instr could be removed
|
||
|
|
from effects structures. This makes effects engine stand
|
||
|
|
alone from the rest of the sox package.
|
||
|
|
o Benedikt Zeyen found a bug in synth effect when generating
|
||
|
|
brown noise that could cause clipping.
|
||
|
|
o David Leverton sent another patch to prevent crashes on
|
||
|
|
amd64's when resampling.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed a bug were MP3 files with large ID3v2 tags could
|
||
|
|
cause SoX to stick in a loop forever. Now, it will
|
||
|
|
abort on IDv3 tags larger then 100k. Could still be
|
||
|
|
improved to handle any size.
|
||
|
|
o Changed volume option (-v) so that it tracks the file
|
||
|
|
it was specified. This means that when specified with
|
||
|
|
the input file, it changes volume before effects engine
|
||
|
|
and when specified with output file, its done after effects
|
||
|
|
engine.
|
||
|
|
o Added crossfade_cat.sh script that will concatenate to
|
||
|
|
audio files and do a crossfade between them.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed bug in fade effect were it was impossible to do a
|
||
|
|
fadeout starting from the beginning of the audio file.
|
||
|
|
o Removed rounding error when changing volume of audio with
|
||
|
|
"-v" option. This error caused doing a "-v -1.0" twice
|
||
|
|
to not result in the original file.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed a possible overflow in lots of effects were MIN
|
||
|
|
value was treated as -MAX instead of -MAX-1.
|
||
|
|
o Modifed sox so its OK for effects to not process any
|
||
|
|
input or output bytes as long as they return ST_EOF.
|
||
|
|
o When effects output data and reported ST_EOF at the
|
||
|
|
same time, that buffer was discarded as well as
|
||
|
|
data from any chained effect.
|
||
|
|
o Added patch from Eric Benson that attempts to do a seek()
|
||
|
|
if the first effect is trim. This greatly speeds up
|
||
|
|
processing large files.
|
||
|
|
o Daniel Pouzzner implemented a multi-band compander (using
|
||
|
|
the butterworth filters to split the audio into bands).
|
||
|
|
o Donnie Smith updated the silence effect so that its possible
|
||
|
|
to remove silence from the middle of a sound file by
|
||
|
|
using a negative value for stop_periods.
|
||
|
|
o Changed float routines to only work with normalized values
|
||
|
|
from -1:1.
|
||
|
|
o Modifed .au handler to be able to read and write 32-bit
|
||
|
|
and 64-bit float data. Only tested reading so far.
|
||
|
|
o WAV with GSM data now always pads data to even number of bytes.
|
||
|
|
o Added support for writing 32-bit audio to AIFF.

||
|

sox-12.17.5 2004-08-15
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Thomas Klausner sent in patches to compile audio drivers under
|
||
|
|
NetBSD.
|
||
|
|
o Rahul Powar pointed out a memory leak in the WAV file handler.
|
||
|
|
It wasn't calling the correct close() function when closing
|
||
|
|
input files.
|
||
|
|
o Modified play.1 man page to not use multiple name lines. This
|
||
|
|
appears to confuse some conversion programs. Updated sox.1
|
||
|
|
man page for typo in reverb option.
|
||
|
|
o Andrew Church fixed problem with header of stereo 8SVX files.
|
||
|
|
o Jimen Ching added support to scan over garbage data at the
|
||
|
|
beginning of MP3 files to find valid frames. This is useful
|
||
|
|
to play WAV and AIFF files that have MP3 data in them until
|
||
|
|
those handlers support it directly. To play those, force
|
||
|
|
sox to use the mp3 handler with the "-t mp3" option.
|
||
|
|
o Added patch from Ulf Harnhammar to wav handler to prevent
|
||
|
|
buffer overflows.
|
||
|
|
o Added patch from Redhat to allow resample to work on certain 64-bit
|
||
|
|
machines (Sam Varshavchik)
|
||
|
|
o Tony Seebregts added a file handler for headerless Dialogic/OKI ADPCM
|
||
|
|
files (VOX files).
|
||
|
|
o Jan Paul Schmidt added a repeat effect to do loops the brute force way.
|
||
|
|
This is also good for file format that don't support loops as well.
|
||
|
|
o Fix for OSS driver in rate tolerance calcs that were off because
|
||
|
|
of type conversion problems. Guenter Geiger.
|
||
|
|
o Allow reading sphere files with headers greater then 256 bytes. Jimen
|
||
|
|
Ching.
|
||
|
|
o Fix for vorbis were comments are displayed in KEY=value format always.
|
||
|
|
Stop printing some info to stdout in case output is a pipe. Guenter
|
||
|
|
Geiger.
|
||
|
|
o J Robert Ray submitted fix for AIFF handler to ignore lowercase
|
||
|
|
chunks that are unknown.
|
||
|
|
o Bugfix for 8-bit voc files. Jimen Ching
|
||
|
|
o General warning cleanups (cbagwell)
|
||
|
|
o Memory leaks in reading WAV files (Ufuk Kayserilioglu)
|
||
|
|
o Rearrange link order of ogg vorbis libraries so that they
|
||
|
|
can be compiled as static. (Christian Weisgerbr)

sox-12.17.4 2003-03-22
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Peter Nyhlen fixed a problem with reading Comments in Ogg Vorbis files.
|
||
|
|
o Added install target to allow installing libgsm from main Makefile.
|
||
|
|
Leigh Smith.
|
||
|
|
o Minor updates to sox.c to free unused memory and close all input
|
||
|
|
files during failures.
|
||
|
|
o Pieter Krul added a patch that makes play script look at AUDIODEV
|
||
|
|
environment variable if it exists to find which device to use.
|
||
|
|
This allows scripts to work with Solaris SunRays and is a good idea
|
||
|
|
in general.
|
||
|
|
o Updated config.sub to detect latest supported OS's.
|
||
|
|
o Fabrizio Gennari added support for reading and writing
|
||
|
|
MP3 files using the external libraries libmad and libmp3lame.
|
||
|
|
o Jens Henrik Goebbert sent in several bugfixes for integer overflows
|
||
|
|
in the compand effect.
|
||
|
|
o Dan Dickerman sent in patches for integer overflows in the resample
|
||
|
|
effect.
|
||
|
|
o Jimen Ching sent in a fix for multi-channel sound file processing
|
||
|
|
using the avg effect.
|
||
|
|
o Richards Bannister added patches to clean up prototypes and filter
|
||
|
|
private sizes being to small.
|
||
|
|
o Jimen Ching adds -d option to specify 64bit data size and changed
|
||
|
|
Ulaw/Alaw encoding to default to 8bit data size if not specified.
|
||
|
|
o David Singer pointed out that a MS program creates AIFF files
|
||
|
|
with an invalid length of 0 in its header. Changed SoX to warn the
|
||
|
|
user but continue instead of aborting since SoX can still read
|
||
|
|
the file just fine.
|
||
|
|
o Bert van Leeuwen added a file handler for Psion record.app used
|
||
|
|
for System/Alarms in some Psion devices.
|
||
|
|
o Richard Bannister sent in a patch to make writing vorbis files
|
||
|
|
work with Vorbis 1.0 libraries.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed configure scripts so that they can be ran with the
|
||
|
|
--with-oss-dsp, --with-alsa, and --with-sun-audio options.
|
||
|
|
Was causing compile time problems. Reported by Raul Coronado.
|
||
|
|
o Change Ogg Vorbis support to use VBR encoding to match defaults
|
||
|
|
of oggenc based on suggestion from Christian Weisgerber.
|
||
|
|
o Prints error message now when a channel value of -1 is given.
|
||
|
|
Reported by Pierre Fortin.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed bug were memory could be trashed if a input WAV file contained
|
||
|
|
a comment. Found by Rhys Chard.
|
||
|
|
o Change command line to compile soxmix.o slightly to try and make
|
||
|
|
Forte compiler happy.
|
||
|
|
o Added support for ALSA 0.9 driver. Jimen Ching
|
||
|
|

||
|

||
|
|
sox-12.17.3 2001-12-15
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Removed check that prevented pan from being invoked when the
|
||
|
|
input and output channels were the same.
|
||
|
|
o Ciaran Anscomb added a flush to sunaudio driver after changing
|
||
|
|
settings. This is because it can start buffering data as soon
|
||
|
|
as the device is open and the buffered data can be in a
|
||
|
|
wrong format.
|
||
|
|
o trim wasn't accounting for # of channels and was generally broken.
|
||
|
|
o Jeff Bonggren fixed trim bugs were it was failing when triming
|
||
|
|
data that equaled to BUFSIZ. Also, trim now immediately returns
|
||
|
|
ST_EOF when its done instead of requiring an extra call that
|
||
|
|
returns no data.
|
||
|
|
o auto effect wasn't rewinding the file if the file was less then
|
||
|
|
132 bytes. Changed auto parsing of header to be incremental
|
||
|
|
instead of reading in a large buffer.
|
||
|
|
o William Plant pointed out a bad pointer access in fade effect's
|
||
|
|
parsing of options.
|
||
|
|
o Ken pointed out a problem were private data was not 8-byte aligned
|
||
|
|
and causing crashes on most RISC CPU's. Fixed by going back to
|
||
|
|
old style of declaring private data as type "double" which usually
|
||
|
|
forces strictest alignment.
|
||
|
|
o ima_rw was miscompiling on alpha's because of a header ordering
|
||
|
|
problem.
|
||
|
|
o Erik de Castro Lopo pointed out that when writing 16-bit VOC files
|
||
|
|
the headers did not contain the correct length or encoding type.
|
||
|
|
o Seperated st.h into 2 files. st.h for libst users and st_i.h for
|
||
|
|
internal use.
|
||
|
|
o Added new types used extensively by libst: st_sample_t & st_size_t.
|
||
|
|
This allows for more deterministic behavior on 64-bit machines and
|
||
|
|
also allows sox to possibly work with much larger file sizes.
|
||
|
|
o SoX was some times getting confused and thinking an EOF was an
|
||
|
|
error case when reading audio files. Removed unneeded aborts
|
||
|
|
when EOF was OK.
|
||
|
|
o Silence effect was broken on stereo files. Also, made thresholds
|
||
|
|
relative to original bit percision of audio data. When 16-bit audio
|
||
|
|
is scaled up to 32-bits, a little bit of noise starts to look like a
|
||
|
|
large amplitude of noise. Also, now using RMS values to smooth out
|
||
|
|
clicks. RMS rolling window size is 1/10 of sample rate.
|
||
|
|
o Changed Floats into a type of encoding instead of a size of audio data.
|
||
|
|
o Put a flush at the end of OSS driver so that no old data would be
|
||
|
|
left in internal buffers after changing audio format parameters.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed problem where play script wasn't installed correctly if you
|
||
|
|
build from another directory (pointed out by Mike Castle).
|
||
|
|
o Made GSM support internal to libst (no external library required).
|
||
|
|
o Change configure script to enable ulaw/alaw lookup tables and GSM
|
||
|
|
support by default. Also have Makefile's make use of more configure
|
||
|
|
prefix options to allow for customized installs.
|
||
|
|
o Reverted ulaw/alaw conversion routines back to Sun's versions.
|
||
|
|
o Modified raw file handler to write files in the same generic buffered
|
||
|
|
fashion that was added for reading in 12.17.2. Seems to have
|
||
|
|
speed up some types of writing.
|
||
|
|
o Reading Ogg Vorbis files could get confused of when EOF was reached.
|
||
|
|
o Added uninstall rules to Makefile. Added new ststdint.h to define
|
||
|
|
*int*_t typedefs.
|
||
|
|
o Added internal strcasecmp for OS/2.
|
||
|
|
o Added support for swapping "bit" order (MSB becomes LSB) for raw u-law
|
||
|
|
and A-law data. Some ISDN equipment prefers it this way. Use -x flag
|
||
|
|
or new .la or .lu file extensions.
|
||
|
|
o Annonymous patch submitted to fix types and spelling problems in
|
||
|
|
various files. Also, updated VOC files to have u-law and A-law
|
||
|
|
support as well as able to read in VOC files using a pipe. More
|
||
|
|
examples added to soxexam file.

sox-12.17.2 2001-09-15
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Daniel Culbert found and fixed a bug in the polyphase effect
|
||
|
|
that occurs on platforms that rand() can return large values.
|
||
|
|
The bug resulted in polyphase resampling an audio file to a
|
||
|
|
different rate then it said it was.
|
||
|
|
o Stan Seibert contributed a handler for Ogg Vorbis files. It
|
||
|
|
handles all input formats but can only save using default
|
||
|
|
settings.
|
||
|
|
o Darrick Servis has made major cleanups in the code in regards
|
||
|
|
to error conditions. Helps people using libst.
|
||
|
|
o Darrick Servis has added added optional seek functionality sox.
|
||
|
|
Several formats have been modified to make use of this.
|
||
|
|
o Geoff Kuenning rewrote the average effect into a general-purpose
|
||
|
|
parametric mapping from N channels to M channels.
|
||
|
|
o Geoff Kuenning added an optional delay-time parameter to the compander
|
||
|
|
effect to allow companding to effectively operate based on future
|
||
|
|
knowledge.
|
||
|
|
o Geoff Kuenning Added support to fade and trim effect for specifying time
|
||
|
|
in hh:mm:ss.frac format.
|
||
|
|
Fixed a bug that caused integer overflow when large start/stop times
|
||
|
|
were used.
|
||
|
|
o Geoff Kuenning updated play/rec/soxeffect scripts to handle all effects
|
||
|
|
added since 12.17. Spell-checked soxexam.1 file.
|
||
|
|
o Jimen Ching updated ALSA configure support to auto-detect 4.x or 5.x API
|
||
|
|
and compile correctly under those two. All other versions are unsupported.
|
||
|
|
o Merged in the NetBSD package changes into CVS finally.
|
||
|
|
o Removed broken support for non-ANSI compilers.
|
||
|
|
o Makefile now places the correct path to SoX in the play/rec scripts
|
||
|
|
based on configuration script values.
|
||
|
|
o Alexander Pevzner provided a fix for OSS driver for sound being
|
||
|
|
dropped under heavy CPU loads. Moved GETBLKSIZE operation
|
||
|
|
until after setting up the format (SBLive! was modify the block size
|
||
|
|
after changing formats).
|
||
|
|
o With help from David Blythe, updated OSS drivers to use newer format
|
||
|
|
interface. OSS driver will now attempt to detect a valid endian type
|
||
|
|
to use with sound card.
|
||
|
|
o Carsten Borchardt pointed out a bug in lowp filter. Added new
|
||
|
|
nul file handler that reads and writes from/to nothing.
|
||
|
|
Also added new synth effect that creates sounds using a simple
|
||
|
|
synthesizer. Created a testcd.sh that uses two new features
|
||
|
|
to create a test sound CD for testing audio equipment.
|
||
|
|
o Ben Last added a new program that uses libst and will merge two
|
||
|
|
seperate audio files into a single file with multiple channels.
|
||
|
|
This was merged into the standard sox.c file by cbagwell.
|
||
|
|
o Andreas Menke fixed some problems with the speed effect and
|
||
|
|
how effects were drained. Also improved the usage of printf()'s
|
||
|
|
to use stderr.
|
||
|
|
o Corrected AU header length value when comments were less than
|
||
|
|
4 bytes.
|
||
|
|
o Added support for reading non-standard bit size data from AIFF files.
|
||
|
|
o Ignore unmatched MARK/INSTR chunks in AIFF files now instead of quiting.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed ALAW encoding bug in .au files as pointed out by Bruce Forsberg.
|
||
|
|
o Unified the raw reading functions. Probably slightly faster for
|
||
|
|
most datatypes but was done to fix recording from the OSS driver.
|
||
|
|
Control-C stopped working somewhere during the 12.17 series.
|
||
|
|
o Ford Prefect added a dcshift which can shift the midline amplitude
|
||
|
|
towards the true center. This will allow for a greater range
|
||
|
|
of volume adjustments without clipping audio data.
|
||
|
|
o Heikki Leinonen submitted a silence effect that will trim off
|
||
|
|
silence from the beginning of a file. cbagwell made some modifications
|
||
|
|
to trim off front and back as well as some other tweaks.
|
||
|
|
o Made the "auto" effect the default file handler for input files.
|
||
|
|
Also have auto handler now use file extensions if it can't figure
|
||
|
|
it out.
|
||
|

sox-12.17.1 2000-11-19
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Andreas Kies fixed a bug were we were not detecting correctly
|
||
|
|
if an output file was seekable.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed a bug in the mask effect introduced in 12.17. If the libc
|
||
|
|
version of rand() returned more then 15-bit values then it would
|
||
|
|
trash your data. Reported by Friedhel Mehnert.
|
||
|
|
o Added a new fade in/out effect from Ari Moisio.
|
||
|
|
o AIFF files now ignore a MARK chunk if the loop type is NoLoop (0).
|
||
|
|
o Fixed bug were it was impossible to output ADPCM data in wav files.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed bug were rate had to be specified for sphere files (fix from
|
||
|
|
Antti Honkela).
|
||
|
|
o Added small work around to let compile with cygwin's gcc 95.2
|
||
|
|
which also now allows to compile with GSM support under windows.
|
||
|
|
o Removed accessing of sound devices in tests for sound support and
|
||
|
|
instead just look for needed header files. This allows the sound
|
||
|
|
support to be detected even if the device is currently busy or when
|
||
|
|
compiled on a box that doesn't have a sound card but the OS supports
|
||
|
|
it (which is the enviornment of most distributions creating new
|
||
|
|
binaries).
|
||
|
|
o Added support to partially handle AIFC files but only uncompressed
|
||
|
|
versions. This should allow people to work with raw CD audio data
|
||
|
|
on Mac OSX and also gives a basis for adding future support for
|
||
|
|
things like ADPCM processing.
|
||
|
|
o Added new "earwax" effect from Edward Beingessner. It is meant to
|
||
|
|
be used for CD audio played through headphones. It will move the
|
||
|
|
sound stage from left/right to in front of you.
|
||
|
|
o Trim effect did not compute locations as was documented in the
|
||
|
|
man pages. Changed effect so that it computed the time the
|
||
|
|
same way that the fade effect does.
|
||

sox-12.17 2000-09-08
|
||
|
|
---------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Sox can now read and write w98 compatible gsm .wav files,
|
||
|
|
if compiled properly with libgsm. Thanks go to Stuart
|
||
|
|
Daines <sjd.u-net.com> for the gsm-wav patches.
|
||
|
|
This is new, and relatively untested. See -g format option.
|
||
|
|
o Sox can now write IMA_ADPCM and ADPCM compressed .wav,
|
||
|
|
this is new, and relatively untested. See -i and -a format
|
||
|
|
options in manpage.
|
||
|
|
o General changes to wav.c for writing additional wav formats.
|
||
|
|
Reading wave headers: more consistency checks.
|
||
|
|
Writing wave headers: fixes for w98.
|
||
|
|
o Speedups to adpcm read routines, new codex versions are
|
||
|
|
now in ima_rw.c and adpcm.c.
|
||
|
|
o Speedups for raw.c, especially for gcc with glibc.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed a segfault problem with ulaw/alaw conversion, where
|
||
|
|
an out-of-range index into the tables could occur.
|
||
|
|
o More detailed output from the stat effect.
|
||
|
|
o Continued rewrite of resample.c, now it is almost as
|
||
|
|
fast with floating arithmetic as the old (buggy) version
|
||
|
|
was with 16-bit integer arithmetic. The older version
|
||
|
|
in sox-12.16 shifted frequencies slightly and was less
|
||
|
|
accurate. (Stan Brooks)
|
||
|
|
o Extensive rewrite of polyphas.c, should be faster and use less memory
|
||
|
|
now. The sox-12.16 polyphase code had some bugs. (Stan Brooks)
|
||
|
|
o New effect 'filter' which is a high-quality DSP lowpass/
|
||
|
|
highpass/bandpass filter using windowed sinc function
|
||
|
|
methods, like polyphase and resample. (Stan Brooks)
|
||
|
|
o Jan Paul Schmidt added new low/high/bandpass and bandlimit
|
||
|
|
filters to sox. They have much better results then the old
|
||
|
|
versions of low/high/bandpass. The new effects are all
|
||
|
|
Butterworth filters.
|
||
|
|
o New data file type supported, -sl or extension .sl for
|
||
|
|
signed 32-bit integers. Some simplification of the raw.c
|
||
|
|
source.
|
||
|
|
o Some test programs and scripts in the test directory, for
|
||
|
|
making gnuplot plots of frequency response, error-levels
|
||
|
|
of rate-conversion and filter effects.
|
||
|
|
o Removed sbdsp code. All modern unixes are support via OSS,
|
||
|
|
ALSA, or sun audio device interfaces.
|
||
|
|
o Added AVR handler from Jan Paul Schmidt.
|
||
|
|
o SoX now waits until the last possible moment before opening
|
||
|
|
the output file. This will allow all input and effect options
|
||
|
|
to be parsed for errors and abort before overwriting any file.
|
||
|
|
o SoX will no longer write to files that exists. This will keep
|
||
|
|
it from deleting files when a user mistakenly types "sox *.wav".
|
||
|
|
o Added new compander effect from Nick Bailey. Nice general purpose
|
||
|
|
filter.
|
||
|
|
o Under Solaris, SoX now checks hardware ability to play stereo/PCM
|
||
|
|
and forces output data to match. Sorry, no SunOS support. I don't
|
||
|
|
have access to one any more.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed array overrun bug in rate effect as pointed out by Ian
|
||
|
|
Donaldson.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed clip24() range as pointed out by Ted Powell.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed possible segfault in echos effect, as pointed out by Zinx
|
||
|
|
Verituse.
|
||
|
|
o Moved most documentation to new "soxexam.1" manual page so that
|
||
|
|
all users on a unix system will have access to important information.
|
||
|
|
This means no more TIPS, CHEATS, or CHEATS.eft files.
|
||
|
|
o Richard Kent fixed a byte alignment problem in aiff comment code.
|
||
|
|
o Loring Holden added support to create missing directories on install
|
||
|
|
and support for installs from outside the source directory.
|
||
|
|
o Fabien COELHO added a pan and volume effect.
|
||
|
|
o Fabien COELHO added a speed effect to sox (like speeding up a tape
|
||
|
|
machine). Also added pitch which changes pitch without effecting
|
||
|
|
duration and stretch which stretch time without effecting pitch.
|
||
|
|
o Leigh Smith updated aiff support to use the COMT check when writing
|
||
|
|
comments instead of the ANNO. It is the prefered method from Apple
|
||
|
|
and newer programs are starting to require it. Also fixed some bugs
|
||
|
|
in how we compute the length of various chunks in output files.
|
||
|
|
o Changed the default block alignement for IMA ADPCM WAV files to use
|
||
|
|
256 which is what windows programs use. Badly written readers expect
|
||
|
|
256.
|
||
|
|
o Matthias Nutt helped add support for specifying multiple effects
|
||
|
|
to SoX on the command line.
|
||
|
|
o Curt Zirzow added a trim effect to trim off audio data.
|
||
|
|
o Updated ALSA driver to support new interface. Jimen Ching

sox-12.16 1999-07-13
|
||
|
|
---------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Changed raw data functions to perform I/O operations using block reads.
|
||
|
|
Should improve speeds greatly, especially when filesize is in megs.
|
||
|
|
Got code ready to tweak speed more which also forced me to clean up
|
||
|
|
Endian test code.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed a bug in .au's handling of G.723. It wasn't using the correct
|
||
|
|
number of bits. Added A-law support to .au.
|
||
|
|
o Quoted $filename in play/rec scripts so that files with spaces in
|
||
|
|
their names can be given.
|
||
|
|
o Old OS/2 support didn't work. Replaced with known working EMX
|
||
|
|
GCC compatible code.
|
||
|
|
o ADPCM WAV files were defaulting to 8-bit outputs and thus losing
|
||
|
|
some persision. Now defaults to 16-bit signed uncompressed data.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed a couple cross-platform compiler issues.
|
||
|
|
o Jimen Ching has added support for "configure" in to SOX. Finally,
|
||
|
|
a good solution to cross-platform compiling!
|
||
|
|
o Jimen Ching has added native support for the ALSA driver to play
|
||
|
|
and record audio from. (jching@flex.com)
|
||
|
|
o Minor correction for -r example in manual page.
|
||
|
|
o Renamed sox.sh to soxeffect and rewrote. Symbolic links can be made
|
||
|
|
from this file to the name of a sox effect. It will then run that
|
||
|
|
effect on STDIN and output the results to STDOUT.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed up some makefiles and 16-bit support from patches sent by
|
||
|
|
Mark Morgan Lloyd (markMLl.in@telemetry.co.uk). Also added some
|
||
|
|
nice DOS test bat files from him as well.
|
||
|
|
o Cleaned up some more cross-platform compile problems. In the process
|
||
|
|
got it working with Turbo C again, kinda. It still locks DOS up at times.
|
||
|
|
o Made AIFF handler work with invalid headers that some programs generate.
|
||
|
|
Also fix an Endian bug thats been there for quite a long time (when
|
||
|
|
ran on Intel machines). Made comment lengths even length to make
|
||
|
|
most MacOS programs happy. cbagwell
|
||
|
|
o Resample function was updated by Andreas Wilde
|
||
|
|
(andreas@eakaw2.et.tu-dresden.de) to fix problem were freqs. were
|
||
|
|
off by a factor of 2.
|
||
|
|
o Added an effect that swaps stereo channels. cbagwell
|
||
|
|
o Combined play and rec scripts to a single program to ease mantaince.
|
||
|
|
Also added GNU style long-options (--help). Careful, some options have
|
||
|
|
change (but more logical).
|
||
|
|
o Fixed a very old silly bug were low/high/bandpass filters would
|
||
|
|
add some trash data to the end of the sound file.
|
||
|
|
o "avg" effect wouldn't give error message when you tried to average
|
||
|
|
x number of channels in to the same number of channels.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed core dump when writting AIFF files with no comments.

sox-12.15 1998-10-01
|
||
|
|
---------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Juergen Mueller moved Sox forward quite a bit by adding all the
|
||
|
|
most commonly known "Guitar Effects". He enhanced echo support,
|
||
|
|
added chorus, flanger, and reverb effects. He also wrote a very
|
||
|
|
handy CHEAT.eft file for using various effects.
|
||
|
|
o Incorporated Yamaha TX-16W sampler file support provided by
|
||
|
|
Rob Talley (rob@aii.com) and Mark Lakata (lakata@physics.berkeley.edu).
|
||
|
|
o Fixed a small bug in hcom compression, dependent on sign
|
||
|
|
extension. Leigh Smith (leigh@psychokiller.dialix.oz.au).
|
||
|
|
o sox -h now prints out the file formats and effects supported.
|
||
|
|
Leigh Smith and Chris Bagwell.
|
||
|
|
o smp transfers comments more completely. Leigh Smith.
|
||
|
|
o aiff manages markers and loops correctly and produces more
|
||
|
|
verbose output. Leigh Smith.
|
||
|
|
o Added polyphase resampler (kb@ece.cmu.edu). This adds a slightly
|
||
|
|
different resampling algorithm to the mix.
|
||
|
|
o Michael Brown (mjb@pootle.demon.co.uk) sent a patch to stop crashes
|
||
|
|
from happening when reading mono MS ADPCM files.
|
||
|
|
o Fabrice Bellard has added a less buggy 'rate' conversion. I've left
|
||
|
|
the old rate code included but if all goes well this will become
|
||
|
|
the new 'rate'. Please test and let me know how it works. Resample
|
||
|
|
effect needs to be reworked now.
|
||
|
|
o Heiko Eissfeldt: Implemented a simple deemphasis effect for
|
||
|
|
certain audio cd samples.
|
||
|
|
o Matija Nalis (mnalis@public.srce.hr) sent a patch to fix volume adjustment
|
||
|
|
(-v) option of sox.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed typo in optimazation flag in unix makefile, as pointed out by
|
||
|
|
Manoj Kasichainula (manojk@io.com).
|
||
|
|
o Fixed missing ';;' in play script. cbagwell
|
||
|
|
o Fixed bug in determining length of IMA and MS ADPCM WAVE files. cbagwell
|
||
|
|
o Fixed bug in how stereo effects were drained which fixed the
|
||
|
|
"reverse" effect from only saving half of stereo files. cbagwell
|
||
|
|
o Can use "-e" without an effect again.
|
||
|
|
o Added -g and -a options for new style support of GSM and ADPCM. Added
|
||
|
|
error checking to various formats to avoid allowing these types.
|
||

sox-12.14 1998-05-15
|
||
|
|
---------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Bumped major version number up and shortened name. The shorter name
|
||
|
|
should help the various distributions using this package.
|
||
|
|
o Added support for MS ADPCM and IMA (or DVI) ADPCM for .wav files.
|
||
|
|
Thanks to Mark Podlipec's xanim for this code (podlipec@ici.net).
|
||
|
|
o Change Lance Norskog's email address to thinman@meer.net. The old
|
||
|
|
one was bouncing.
|
||
|
|
o Added path string to play and rec strings so that it could be run by
|
||
|
|
users without complete paths setup (i.e. Ran by "rc" files during bootup
|
||
|
|
or shutdown)
|
||
|
|
o Fixed -e option from Richard Guenther
|
||
|
|
(richard.guenther@student.uni-tuebingen.de) and fixed a small bug
|
||
|
|
in stat.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed a bug in the mask effect for ULAW/ALAW files.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed a bug in cdr output files that appended trash to end of file.
|
||
|
|
o Guenter Geiger (geiger@iem.mhsg.ac.at) made a rather large patch to
|
||
|
|
allow sox to work on 64-bit alphas. It was done the easiest meathod
|
||
|
|
by changing all long declarations to use a macro that knows to
|
||
|
|
make it 32-bits. Want to port to another 64-bit-but-not-alpha
|
||
|
|
machine? Grep for "alpha" to see changes. There are most likely
|
||
|
|
several bugs left for alphas. Guenter is also supporting this
|
||
|
|
package for the Debian distribution.
|
||
|
|
o Did some major code cleanups to clear out some warning messages
|
||
|
|
during compile. This is to clear up problems I'm finding under
|
||
|
|
both alpha and dos. Some warning messages are actually useful
|
||
|
|
now (pointing out possible data loss). Hopefully, I didn't
|
||
|
|
break anything.
|
||
|
|
o Code clean up allows me to finally compile code under Turbo C
|
||
|
|
again. Too bad the EXE gets a currupted stack somewhere and locks
|
||
|
|
up the system. Anyone want to try it with Borland C for me?
|
||
|
|
If you get a working EXE I would like to start distributing a DOS
|
||
|
|
package like there used to be.
|
||
|
|
o Speaking of cleanups, anyone want to help cleanup the makefiles for
|
||
|
|
various platforms? They are quite outdated right now and it is
|
||
|
|
very obvious that Sox hasn't been able to compile under all the
|
||
|
|
platforms it once did for several releases. Please send in
|
||
|
|
the cleaned-up makefile versions along with what programs you
|
||
|
|
used to compile it with.
|
||
|
|
o There is a known bug in hcom's compress() function. It is allocating
|
||
|
|
memory that can't be free'd under some OS's. It causes a core dump.

sox-11gamma-cb3 1997-03-28
|
||
|
|
---------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This release of sox is mainly a bugfix release. The following things
|
||
|
|
have changed:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Documentation has been updated when it was obviously wrong.
|
||
|
|
Much more work could be done. Man pages were updated to
|
||
|
|
work correctly on Solaris and add some missing info.
|
||
|
|
o Several people sent me patches to fix compiling on Solaris
|
||
|
|
as well as fix a few bugs.
|
||
|
|
o Change USS driver's name to OSS. Man, does that driver
|
||
|
|
like to change names! This could cause problems if you
|
||
|
|
have made your own custom play and rec scripts.
|
||
|
|
o Updated my email address. Sorry if I haven't responded to
|
||
|
|
any emails as I no longer have access to my old address.
|
||
|
|
Please use cbagwell@sprynet.com.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed unix test scripts so that they worked again.
|
||
|
|
o Fixed endian bug in psion .wve code.
|
||
|
|
o Replaced outdated voc info file with detailed format info
|
||
|
|
inside voc code.
|
||
|
|
o Added new sound format, cvsd (Continuously Variable Slope Delta)
|
||
|
|
from Thomas Sailer (sailer@ife.ee.ethz.ch).

sox-11gamma-cb2 1996-10-04
|
||
|
|
---------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This release of sox is based on the latest gamma version released
|
||
|
|
plus some patches I've made to support the following new features:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I would like to thank everyone that wrote me about the long
|
||
|
|
standing bug in Sox that could DELETE your /dev/* file if the
|
||
|
|
program was aborted for reason such as invalid audio file. Special
|
||
|
|
thanks for Bryan Franklin for sending in a patch when I was
|
||
|
|
to busy to even look for it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Better play support for 8-bit stereo voc files. New support
|
||
|
|
for outputing both 8-bit and 16-bit stereo voc files.
|
||
|
|
o Built-in support for playing and recording from Linux /dev/dsp.
|
||
|
|
This is a re-write and seperate module from the previous
|
||
|
|
support included inside the sbdsp module. Also fixes a buffer
|
||
|
|
size bug that showed up when using newer versions of OSS.
|
||
|
|
This driver will work with OSS (and older versions called USS, TASD
|
||
|
|
and Voxware).
|
||
|
|
o Support for audio playing and recording with SunOS /dev/audio.
|
||
|
|
o Fixes a bug were /dev/audio or /dev/dsp could be deleted
|
||
|
|
when playing an invalid format audio file.
|
||
|
|
o Expanded options for play and rec scripts. You can now specify
|
||
|
|
sox effects after the filename and hear them in real time.
|
||
|
|
Please be sure that an older version of sox is not in your path
|
||
|
|
because these script will possibly find it first and
|
||
|
|
incorrectly use it.
|
||
|
|
o Setting play/record volume still requires an external program.
|
||
|
|
If you have one a command line program to do this (such as
|
||
|
|
"mixer" for Linux) then you will want to edit the play and rec
|
||
|
|
to use this. The current support for it is only in example
|
||
|
|
form of how it can be done.
