VoIPong is an utility which detects all Voice Over IP calls on a pipeline, and
dumps those which are G711-encoded to separate wave files. It supports SIP,
H323, Cisco's Skinny Client Protocol, RTP and RTCP. For performance reasons,
it is written in the C programming language.
Volume Icon aims to be a lightweight volume control that sits in your systray.
It is often used in conjuction with the lightweight tint2 panel/taskbar.
Features
- Change volume by scrolling on the systray icon
- Ability to choose which channel to control
- Several icon themes (with gtk theme as default)
- Configurable external mixer
- Volume Slider
- Hotkey support
VorbisGain is a utility that uses a psychoacoustic method to correct
the volume of an Ogg Vorbis file to a predefined standardized
loudness.
It is meant as a replacement for the normalization that is commonly
used before encoding. Although normalization will ensure that each
song has the same peak volume, this unfortunately does not say
anything about the apparent loudness of the music, with the end
result being that many normalized files still don't sound equally
loud. VorbisGain uses psychoacoustics to address this deficiency.
Moreover, unlike normalization, it's a lossless procedure which
works by adding tags to the file. Additionally, it will add hints
that can be used to prevent clipping on playback. It is based upon
the ReplayGain technology.
The end result is that the file ends up with superior playback
quality compared to a non-VorbisGain'ed file.
It needs player support to work. Non-supporting players will play
back the files without problems, but you'll miss out on the benefits.
Ncmpcpp is almost exact clone of ncmpc but it contains some
new features ncmpc doesn't have. It's been also rewritten
from scratch in C++.
WaveGain is a program that applies ReplayGain to wave files.
The FreeBSD port of WaveGain is with a patch from gnormalize
whose author is Claudio Fernandes de Souza Rodrigues.
The author of WaveGain is John Edwards.
This is a port of wavplay from Linux. It can record from your sound
card and play recorded sound.
WhySynth is a versatile softsynth which operates as a plugin for the
Disposable Soft Synth Interface (DSSI). A brief list of features:
- 4 oscillators, 2 filters, 3 LFOs, and 5 envelope generators per
voice.
- 11 oscillator modes: minBLEP, wavecycle, chorused wavecycle,
asynchronous granular, three FM modes, waveshaper, noise,
PADsynth, and phase distortion.
- 10 filter modes.
- flexible modulation and mixdown options, plus effects.
WMalbum is a dock applet that displays album covers for songs being
played by XMMS. You must already have images of the album covers stored
near the file being played. WMAlbum provides a handy circular menu
for play/skip/etc, and can replace wmxmms. Although dock applets are
designed for the WindowMaker window manager, they also work in other
window managers including openbox and blackbox.
Csound is a programming language designed and optimized for sound
rendering and signal processing. The language consists of over 450
opcodes - the operational codes that the sound designer uses to build
"instruments" or patches.
Although there are an increasing number of graphical "front-ends" for
the language, you typically design and modify your patches using a word
processor. Usually, you create two text files - a .orc (orchestra) file
containing the "instruments," and a .sco (score) file containing the
"notes."
In Csound, the complexity of your patches is limited by your knowledge,
interest, and need, but never by the language itself. For instance, a
22,050 oscillator additive synthesizer with 1024 stage envelope
generators on each is merely a copy-and-paste operation. The same goes
for a 1 million voice granular texture!
Have you ever dreamed of sounds such as these? Well in Csound you can.
And in Csound these dreams can come true!
Xcd is a simple GUI to control a CD player. It requires Tcl/Tk to be
installed on your system.
Xcd has the usual buttons to control a CD player: "play",
"pause/resume", "stop", "eject", "next track", "previous track",
"rewind", "forward" and a volume slider. Xcd displays continuously the
current track number and the elapsed time of the track. Pressing the
left mouse button on the "track" label causes Xcd to display the total
number of the tracks and the total duration of the disk. Pressing the
left mouse button on the "time" label causes xcd to display the
duration of the current track. Pressing the middle mouse button on
the "track" button allows to choose a track number to play.
