ALURE is a utility library to help manage common tasks with OpenAL applications.
This includes device enumeration and initialization, file loading,
and streaming. As of version 1.1, it is X11/MIT licensed, allowing it to be used
in open- and closed-source programs, freeware or commercial.
The purpose of this library is to provide pre-made functionality that would
otherwise be repetitive or difficult to (re)code for various projects
and platforms, such as loading a sound file into an OpenAL buffer and streaming
an audio file through a buffer queue. Support for different formats is
consistant across platforms, so no special checks are needed when loading files,
and all formats are handled through the same API.
Currently ALURE includes a basic .wav and .aif file reader,
and can leverage external libraries such as libSndFile
(for extended wave formats and several others), VorbisFile (for Ogg Vorbis),
FLAC (for FLAC and Ogg FLAC), and others. External libraries can also be
dynamically loaded at run-time, or individually disabled outright at compile
time.
amp (Audio Mpeg Player) is an MPEG audio decoder which was originally started
putting together as a side project of the MPEG hardware design project at
FER/Zagreb - just to confirm my knowledge of the standard. It works with
both MPEG1 and MPEG2 audio streams, layer3 and for now the multichannel
extensions defined in MPEG2 too.
The LinuxSampler project was founded with the goal to produce a
free, streaming capable open source pure software audio sampler
with professional grade features, comparable to both hardware and
commercial Windows/Mac software samplers and to introduce new
features not yet available by any other sampler in the world.
Mp3ck is a portable utility for checking the consistency of MPEG
Layer 2 or 3 streams or files. The primary accent of the check is
on the seamless flow of frames and tags since most MPEG defects
introduced by aborted network transfers manifest themselves in its
breakage.
This is a command-line utility which tries to determine the encoder used to
create an mp3 file.
Each encoder has unique characteristics fingerprinted into each file. This
program analyzes algorithms that are used in any given file and determines which
encoder was used. For example the Xing encoder never uses short blocks.
Mp3Wrap is a command-line utility that 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 with the possibility of including
other non mp3 files, such as PlayLists, info files, cover images, inside the
mp3.
3GPP Adaptive Multi-Rate Floating-point (AMR) Speech Codec Shared Library
3GPP released reference implementation of 3GPP Adaptive Multi-Rate
Floating-point (AMR) Speech Codec (3GPP TS 26.104).
http://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/html-info/26104.htm
This package converts 3GPP TS 26.104 reference implementation of AMR-NB to a
shared library.
3GPP AMR Adaptive Multi-Rate - Wideband (AMR-WB) Speech Codec Shared Library
3GPP released reference implementation of 3GPP AMR Adaptive Multi-Rate -
Wideband (AMR-WB) Speech Codec (3GPP TS 26.204).
http://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/html-info/26204.htm
This package converts 3GPP TS 26.204 reference implementation of AMR-WB to a
shared library.
Audio::Mixer - Perl extension for Sound Mixer control
This is just a very simple Perl interface which allows to set various
sound mixer parameters. The most important probably 'vol' (volume). The
list of all mixer parameters can be obtained using get_mixer_params()
function.
All values (lcval, rcval) are numbers in 0-100 range.
The Network Audio System is designed for playing,
recording, and manipulating audio data over a network.
Like the X Window System, it uses the client/server model to
separate applications from the specific drivers that control
audio input and output devices.
