[[Concept:Audio]]

Airtime: Think of a radio station. Airtime is software that allows multiple people to run it over the internet. Airtime helps them manage the audio archive, upload files, create shows, manage staff, edit the programme calendar and cue playout. Designed specifically for independent media, it's free software.

Alogg: 'alogg' is a library which makes it easier to use Ogg/Vorbis streams with Allegro. It offers facilities to decode, stream, and encode Ogg/Vorbis streams, and integrates those facilities with Allegro's datafile and sample loading routines. 'alogg' comes with a sample player, streamer, and encoder based on Allegro's sound routines.

Amarok: Amarok is a cross-platform multimedia player that uses the Phonon sound server framework to play audio media and streams, and features a fresh and efficient approach to playlist handling. The emphasis is on the quick and easy user interface, allowing for fast access to the media library.

Ambisuite: 1. AMBCALC a Perl script that prints out channel values for a given azimuth and elevation. Should work on any platform with Perl installed, thusfar tested on Linux. 2. AMBINFO a Perl script that reads WAVEX header (same comment regarding platforms as ambcalc). 3. AMBMAN a Perl collection of utilities for manipulating, converting etc. ambisonic files. 4. WAV2AMB a Perl script that 'corrects' the headers on Wave Format Extensible files (same comment regarding platforms as ambcalc ).

Save effort, battery power and mobile data usage with powerful automation controls for downloading episodes (specify times, intervals and WiFi networks) and deleting episodes (based on your favourites and delay settings).

Aplakons: Aplakons allows you to build a sheets schema to organize activities to be followed by registered users. You can configure sets of sheets to customize each one’s activities to follow. You prepare a repository of sheets (as concrete activities), and after you order them in different arrays. The arrays can be assigned to users as activity plans. For example, a whole diet (array) based on cooking recipes (activities).

Aqualung: Aqualung is an advanced music player originally targeted at the GNU/Linux operating system, today also running on FreeBSD, OpenBSD and other platforms. It plays audio CDs, internet radio streams and podcasts as well as soundfiles in just about any audio format and has the feature of inserting no gaps between adjacent tracks.

Aria Maestosa: Compose, edit, and play MIDI files. Has a graphical user interface with multiple instrument-specific views.

Arson: Arson is a KDE frontend to various CD burning and ripping tools. It was originally written to burn audio CDs, as there were no other frontends that used cdrdao (in disk at once mode), that could decode various encoded audio formats (mp3, ogg), and that displayed an accurate track length as the playlist was created. Arson was later expanded to include full progress display for all lengthy operations, audio CD burning, normalization of tracks before burning to even out volumes, data CD burning, CdIndex support (a free CDDB-like service), CD-to-CD copying (direct or with an intermediate file), and audio CD ripping/encoding (ripping tracks from a CD to files), and encoding to WAV, MP3, and Ogg Vorbis formats is supported. Data CD burning and [S]VCD image creation and burning are supported.

Audacious: Audacious is a free software audio player. A descendant of XMMS, Audacious plays your music how you want it, without stealing away your computer’s resources from other tasks. Drag and drop folders and individual song files, search for artists and albums in your entire music library, or create and edit your own custom playlists. Listen to CD’s or stream music from the Internet. Tweak the sound with the graphical equalizer or experiment with LADSPA effects. Enjoy the modern GTK-themed interface or change things up with Winamp Classic skins. Use the plugins included with Audacious to fetch lyrics for your music, to set an alarm in the morning, and more.

Audacity: Audacity is a cross-platform multitrack audio editor that lets you record sounds directly or import Ogg, WAV, AIFF, AU, IRCAM, or MP3 files. It features a few simple effects, all of the editing features you should need, and unlimited undo. The GUI is built with wxWidgets and the audio I/O currently uses PortAudio.

Audio Space: AudioSpace calculates the amount of storage required by an audio recording of a given duration, for different sampling rates, resolutions, and numbers of channels. The calculation may be made for uncompressed audio data or for several types of compression. A variety of units may be selected for reporting the result. The calculation may also be made in the opposite direction so as to determine how long a recording will fit into the available space.

Audio Utils

A collection of bash and perl scripts that help convert audio files.

aac2ogg - a quick and dirty AAC to OGG Vorbis converter.
wma2ogg - simple bash script that uses mplayer to convert ugly WMA files to OGG Vorbis.
reencode - a simple bash script that lets you re-encode MP3 files to higher/lower bitrates. Useful when the resulting MP3 file is going to be on a low-memory device (ie. "MP3" players).

Audio codec 2: 'Audio codec' is part of the LAME project, which is the source code for a fully GPL'd MP3 encoder. The project's goal is to improve the psychoacoustics, noise shaping and speed of MP3.

Audio-Convert: audio convert is a script that converts between WAV, Ogg, MP3, MPC, FLAC, APE, and WMA files. It has an easy-to-use interface that makes it possible to fill in the tags for a few formats and choose the quality of compression. The script was initially designed for the Nautilus file browser and can be easily installed into Nautilus by copying it to the nautilus-scripts directory. You can then right-click on files and choose "audio-convert" from the "scripts" menu. The script is also known to work on rox or directly from a shell.

AutoSub: From GitHub README: AutoSub is a CLI application to generate subtitle files (.srt, .vtt, and .txt transcript) for any video file using Mozilla DeepSpeech. I use the DeepSpeech Python API to run inference on audio segments and pyAudioAnalysis to split the initial audio on silent segments, producing multiple small files.

Autorun: 'autorun' automagically recognizes all available CDROMs in the system, mounts them upon insertion of a media and executes a possible autorun executable on the CD. The user can remove the media; autorun will call unmount after that.

Av-caster: From the project's README on 29 October 2021: AvCaster is built upon the JUCE framework, utilizing gStreamer as the media backend and libircclient as the chat backend. It is currently capable of recording to file or streaming to an RTMP server with screen capture (full-screen), webcam (full-screen or overlay), and audio (mono or stereo). It is moderately configurable, with preset configurations for streaming via popular servers such as livecoding.tv, and allows custom user-defined configurations to be stored as additional presets. This initial target is GNU/Linux, but it has been designed for portability and includes starter projects for AndroidStudio, CodeBlocks, VisualStudio, and xCode IDEs.

Bchunk: 'bchunk' converts CD images in the raw BIN/CUE format to a set of tracks in ISO 9660 format, which can be then written on a CD-R using cdrecord. Audio tracks are written in CDR (native CD audio) or WAV format.

Bestfit: Bestfit is a small program to determine which files that should be put on a CD (or other media), so that as little space as possible is wasted. It is very easy to use: you specify files on the command line, and bestfit prints the names of those that were selected. Alternatively, bestfit can execute a command for each selected file (eg. to move them to a different directory).

CDfs: 'CDfs' is a file system that 'exports' all tracks and boot images on a CD as normal files. These files can then be mounted (e.g. for ISO and boot images), copied, played (audio tracks), etc. Its main goal is to 'unlock' information in old ISO sessions. The file system also lets you access data on faulty multi session disks, e.g. disks with multiple single sessions instead of a multi session.

CDimgtools: CDimg tools is a set of command line tools to manipulate CD/DVD images of certain formats.

CYTHAR: CYTHAR is multi-platform, pattern-oriented, polyphonic MIDI step-sequencer, which makes its own path. 16 parallel patterns with six tracks and 16 bars -- equating to 256 bars and 96 tracks. The six pattern tracks imitate the strings of a guitar and will be tuned e.g. to “EAdgbe”. For example, you can set a guitar chord to a pattern tune and then by enabling a few events or triggers the sequencer will start a solo or plays with the chords. You can program drum sets, melodies, arpeggios and complete songs.

Cadencii: Cadencii is a multi-track piano roll editor. A synthesis backend, such as vConnect-STAND or EFB-GW-PL is needed.

Ccd2cue: The program ccd2cue is a CCD sheet to CUE sheet converter for the GNU Operating System. It supports the full extent of CUE sheet format expressiveness, including mixed-mode discs and CD-Text meta-data. It plays an important role for those who need to use optical disc data which is only available in the proprietary sheet format CCD, but don’t want to surrender their freedom. It fills an important gap in the free software world because before its conception it was impossible to use complex forms of optical disc data laid out by CCD sheets in a whole/holy free operating system.

Cdcd: cdcd is a CLI CD player designed to incorporate all the features of the X and curses based CD players without having to use a clunky push button interface or having a console hogged with a curses-based CD player. cdcd can accept commands directly from the command line, or in a query mode similar to telnet or ftp. CDDBP and HTTP mode CDDB support is inlcuded, and now CD Index support as well. cdcd also supports CD-ROM changers on GNU/Linux 2.1 or 2.2 systems. You can run cdcd with a command as the argument (eg cdcd play), which is a great way to use cdcd and cron together to make a CD alarm clock. If you run cdcd without arguments you will be given the cdcd command prompt.

Cdda2wav

Cdda2wav is a program recording audio tracks digitally (CDDA) from compact disc drives or burners into wav files, making possible lossless copies of audio tracks. It is currently distributed as part of the 'cdrtools' package. Features include:

Cdparanoia: Cdparanoia is a Compact Disc Digital Audio (CDDA) extraction tool, commonly known as a 'ripper'. It is built on top of the Paranoia library (included in the cdparanoia source distribution). The cdparanoia package reads audio from the CDROM directly as data, with no analog step between, and writes the data to a file or pipe in WAV, AIFC or raw 16 bit linear PCM. 'cdparanoia' contains few-to-no 'extra' features; it concentrates on the ripping process and knowing as much as possible about the hardware performing it. Cdparanoia will read correct audio data from inexpensive drives prone to misalignment, frame jitter and loss of streaming during atomic reads, and can read and repair data from damaged CDs. It has no compile time configuration, and will autodetect the CDROM, its type, its interface and other aspects of the ripping process at runtime.

Cdrdao: 'cdrdao' creates audio or mixed mode CD-Rs in disk-at-once (DAO) mode driven by a description file. In DAO mode, users can create non standard track pre-gaps with lengths other than 2 seconds and contain nonzero audio data. This lets users divide live recordings into tracks where 2 second gaps would be irritating and create hidden tracks or track intros as found on commercial CDs.

Cdrom: Cdrom is a small/lightweight CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive controlling utility. It supports several features like automatic mounting/unmounting (if needed), speed control, drive capability, CD status, and more. The author notes that cdrom was programmed under Linux 2.4, and has not been tested with newer kernel versions, including the 2.6 branch.

Cdrtools: !!!WARNING!!!! This download probably has serious licence issues. For saver options look at the details tab. cdrtools (formerly cdrecord) creates home-burned CDs with a CDR/CDRW recorder. It works as a burn engine for several applications. It supports CD recorders from many different vendors; all SCSI-3/mmc- and ATAPI/mmc-compliant drives should also work. Supported features include IDE/ATAPI, parallel port, and SCSI drives, audio CDs, data CDs, and mixed CDs, full multi-session support, CDRWs (rewritable), TAO, DAO, RAW, and human-readable error messages. cdrtools includes remote SCSI support and can access local or remote CD writers.

Conversations.im: Conversations is a Jabber/XMPP client for Android 5.0+ smartphones that has been optimized to provide a unique mobile experience. A port to iOS is envisaged in the medium-term future. Conversations allows you to easily send images, show if your contact has received and read your message, permit dynamic history and handles multiple devices (especially sync with desktop clients), allow you to create group chats and support one-to-one Audio/Video calls ! And thanks to the XMPP Protocol (that is a push protocol) you battery life is safe. Conversations also does not require a Google Account or specifically Google Cloud Messaging (GCM). Using the XMPP federated protocol, you can freely choose a trustworthy server (your own if you want) for yourself while still chatting with contacts that are using other servers. The communication between Conversations and the XMPP server as well as the communication between the individual servers is TLS encrypted. This way, not only your messages are safe but more importantly it is impossible for an outside attacker to intercept your meta data (with whom you are chatting) without attacking your server first. On top of that, Conversations gives you the choice to enable one of two end-to-end encryption mechanisms. The first one is OMEMO, a state of the art multi-end-to-multi-end encryption method which is very easy to setup and gives you forward secrecy and plausible deniability. For backwards compatibility reasons Conversations also supports OpenPGP.

Danm (talk) 14:01, 10 November 2017 (EST) Perl script which converts MP3 files into Ogg Vorbis format by reading the ID3 tags from MP3 files, correctly tagging the Ogg files, optionally renaming them based on those tags, and deleting the originals.

Mp3Kult: Mp3Kult is an application for KDE 2. It organizes your MP3 collection in a MySQL database. It can read MP3 Tag and song information (length, bit rate sample rate etc.), make playlists, play songs with an external player (xmms, gqmpeg), find a song in database (base and advanced search), and make a copy of a playlist on your hard disk (to play the playlist without inserting cdroms). Mp3Kult can recursivly scan directories looking for MP3s and automatically mount, umount, and eject a CDROM before/after a job.

Mp3act: mp3act is an AJAX-based Web interface to a user's collection of MP3s. It features Jukebox Mode (play on local stereo), Streaming Mode, a searchable database, easy installation, a simple user interface, reading of ID3 tag data, dynamic playlists, random streams, random play by artist, genre, or album, browsing of the collection by artist or genre, album art downloading through Amazon API, AudioScrobbler submission, and detailed play statistics.

Mp3cddb: 'mp3cddb' pretends that a directory is a physical CD, calculates an ID based off that, and does a FreeDB lookup on it. Based on the information it gets, you can then pick the correct CD, edit the information, set the ID3 tags, and rename the files as you wish. There are numerous similar programs, but 'mp3cddb' has a quick and clean command-line based interface and is quite configurable. It supports gathering information from automatically calculated FreeDB DiscID, manually specified FreeDB DiscID, and ID3 tags of mp3s, ID3v1 and ID3v2 writing, manual input to blank template, and has ReadLine support for full text editing with history. It also includes a simple but powerful regular-expression based renaming engine.

Mp3check: 'mp3check' is a script that checks directories and subdirectories of MP3s to verify that they are in an ideal form for burning to an ISO9660 filesystem. It checks ID3 tags, filename length, whether there are strange characters, whether the MP3s start with a two digit number, etc., and autocorrects problems on request. It's particularly useful for building CDs for car players.

Mp3fs transcoding FUSE filesystem: MP3FS is a read-only FUSE filesystem that transcodes FLAC audio files to MP3 on the fly when opened and read. It is useful to enable the use of your FLAC collection with software and/or hardware that only understands MP3s. It is also a novel alternative to traditional MP3 encoder applications. Just use your favorite file browser to select the files you want encoded, and copy them somewhere.

Mp3mover.pl: mp3mover.pl is a Perl script which attempts to rename MP3 files so that they conform to a consistent user-defined naming scheme. It inspects every MP3 in a directory and attempts to work out which part of the MP3 is the artist's name, album name, etc. It then renames each MP3 to follow the user's naming scheme, optionally creating a directory structure and writing an id3v1 or id3v2 tag to the MP3 based on the information it obtains. mp3mover.pl was designed to be very flexible and can be highly customized through the use of a large number of command line options and a per user configuration file.

Mp3riot: 'mp3riot' is a command line utility that searches recursively through directories, builds a file list (with additional file information), sorts this filelist alphabetically by the filenames, not by the name of the directory they are stored in, and generates html files. The output can be controlled, links can be corrected, and more. The script is mainly desigend to create Web pages, playlists, and databases for MP3 and Ogg files, but can also used for other purposes. This package was formerly known as 'f2html.'

Mp3splt: 'mp3splt' splits MP3 and Ogg files at specified times without decoding and re-encoding. It's useful for splitting large mp3/ogg to make smaller files or for splitting entire albums to obtain original tracks. You can select split points and filenames manually or you can get them automatically from CDDB (internet or a local file) or from .cue files. It also supports also automatic silence split which can be used also to adjust cddb/cue splitpoints.

Mp3stat: Mp3stat scans MP3 and Ogg files and generates a linear graph of bitrates per section of the file and a table of how many blocks in the file fall under a certain bitrate. It also lets you compare the effect (at least on bitrates) of using different decoders or codecs on the same file as well as seeing how different arguments on the same encoder affect bitrate. The batch file mode lets users compile data about their entire collection.

Mp3station: MP3 STATION is a LIRC-aware, plain-text tool set for managing MP3 playback in a car or home with as little user interaction as possible. It can restart the last playlist at the last played track/frame, transparently load directories and recompile playlists, and keep a repository of all playlists. It has two simple clients for communicating with cm3s (a curses console client and a very basic one on a parallel port). All programs run under a non-privileged user account.

Mp3tools: mp3tools is a set of utilities (mp3id3, mp3info, mp3index, and mp3gui) for managing collections of MPEG audio files. It can get information such as bitrate and play length about a file, view and alter ID3 tags, and generate completely customized listings. mp3info shows the play length, bitrate, MPEG version and layer of an MPEG audio file. mp3id3 shows the ID3 tags from an MPEG audio file and let you change them. mp3index generates customized listings of your MPEG audio files. It comes with a sample "format file", which is how mp3index determines what to make the output look like. The final part of mp3tools is mp3gui, a graphical user interface with all the power of mp3info, and mp3id3 in addition to being a frontend to mp3index. With mp3gui, you don't need to use command-line arguments.

Mp3wrap: 'mp3wrap' wraps two or more mp3 files in one single large playable mp3, without losing filenames and ID3 informations (and without need of decoding/encoding). Also, other non mp3 files (PlayLists, info files, non mp3 files, cover images) may be included inside the mp3. This means you get a large mp3 that you can split in any moment just using mp3splt and in few seconds you have all original files again! It's useful because files created with Mp3Wrap are easy to download. Infact who downloads has not to know each single song name and easy to play and even if you don't have mp3splt to split file, you can listen to it anyway. Mp3Wrap files do not need ID3 to work. It is faster because you have not to select each file one at a time. It can also include path info and other non mp3 files such as playlists.

Mpd: Music Player Daemon (MPD) is a server that allows remote access for playing music (MP3, Ogg Vorbis, and Flac) and managing playlists. The design focus is on integrating a computer into a stereo system that provides control for music playback over a local network.

Its goals are ease of installation and use, minimal resource requirements, and stability and flexibility.

Mpd-configure: The mpd-configure bash script creates a valid configuration file for mpd, optimised for bit perfect playback of any digital audio file, including those of high resolution. With default settings the script uses the first available alsa audio interface by using its hardware address (in the form of hw:x,y), and has automagic procedures for things like the music directory and directory where files are stored, the number of items in the music direcory and the UPNP name. When multiple audio interfaces are found, the user is presented with a choice.

Mpd-monitor: `mpd-monitor` is a bash script which displays the properties of an audio stream as played by Music Player Daemon (mpd). Besides the common mpd meta values of the current stream, like title, artist and source (url), it displays the detailed audio properties of the source stream or file, the way mpd interprets it, and the way the stream is handled by alsa (and thereforehanded over to the DAC). It can be used as a real life bit-perfectness monitor.

Supports burning DVD-images and data DVDs, and other funny options. Also makes use of advanced and extensive regular expressions for the control of the capabilities of backend applications to burn and create audio files. MyBashBurn depends on cdrecord and other backend applications, so basically if your writing device works with it, MyBashBurn will work flawlessly. mybashburn basically, it is no more than a Terminal User Interface (TUI) frontend based of the CD burning shell script called BashBurn for GNU/Linux; this originally does not have the best eye-candy CD-burning UI, nevertheless, MyBashBurn uses dialog boxes/functions which draws (using ncurses) windows onto the screen. MyBashBurn dialog boxes offer good functionality, and has very good capabilities of automatically finding dependencies and auto detecting devices CD/DVD RW. In short, do not reinvent the wheel - just let MyBashBurn do what you want it to do.

The system contains a number of well-established ideas from sound systems programming, including matrix-based sequencing, unit generators, software synthesis and sampling, block oriented computation, and a graphical workspace.

Ogg Vorbis: Ogg vorbis is a fully open, non-proprietary, patent and royalty free compressed audio format for high quality (44.1-48.0kHz, 16+ bit, polyphonic) audio and music and fixed and variable bitrates from 16 to 128 kbps/channel. This puts Vorbis in the same class as audio representations including MPEG-1, audio layer 3, MPEG-s audio (AAC and TwinVQ) and PAC. Vorbis can both encode and decode as a single pass, real-time stream, and requires roughly the same encoding and decoding power as mp3. We anticipate that it will get faster as time goes on. Ogg vorbis uses the Ogg bitstream format; the correct extension is .ogg. Ogg vorbis was created because mp3 is not truly free: MPEG consortium members claim you cannot create an mp3 encoder without infringing on their patents.

OggEnc: * OggEnc is now part of 'Vorbis-tools'. OggEnc is a flexible and fully featured command line encoder for the Ogg Vorbis format. It is the official command line encoder for Ogg Vorbis, a high quality audio codec from xiph.org.
