💖 SNDFILE-RESAMPLE 💖

okay so bestie, this is sndfile-resample from the General Commands Manual — it's a sample rate converter and it literally eats sample rates for breakfast. let's get into it 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

sndfile-resample — sample rate converter 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

sndfile-resample [-c number] -to rate input output
sndfile-resample [-c number] -by ratio input output

like, that's the whole vibe. you give it an input, you give it an output, you tell it how to change the rate, and it goes 💅

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

so sndfile-resample is a sample rate converter that uses libsndfile for all the file I/O (reading and writing, the boring-but-essential part) and Secret Rabbit Code (aka libsamplerate) to actually do the conversion. no cap. 🐰

it works on any file format supported by libsndfile with any number of channels — the only limit is your host memory, which is honestly so iconic of it. 😭✨

🎀 the options, bestie 🎀

The options are as follows:

  • -c number — pick your converter type from this list, fr fr:
    • 0 — Best Sinc Interpolator
    • 1 — Medium Sinc Interpolator (default)
    • 2 — Fastest Sinc Interpolator
    • 3 — ZOH Interpolator
    • 4 — Linear Interpolator
  • -to rate — convert to the specified sample rate. just say the rate you want, periodt.
  • -by ratio — change the sample rate by the given ratio. the ratio can be any positive real, and the resulting rate gets floored to an integer. for instance: changing the rate of 44100 by a factor of 1.3333 results in a sample rate of 58798. math ate that. 🔥
  • --no-normalize — disable clipping check and normalization. that's it, that's the whole thing. 🙈
heads up bestie: that last one turns off the clipping check and the normalization, so it's giving "i know what i'm doing" energy. proceed accordingly 💀
