NAME

       auconvert - perform various conversion operations on sound files

SYNOPSIS

       auconvert  [-file  <format>]  [-data  <format>] [-rate <sample rate>] [-comment <comment>]
       [-raw  <data format>   <num tracks>]   [-volume   <percent>|`max']   [-?]   [<input file>]
       [<output file>]

DESCRIPTION

       The  auconvert  program  can  be  used  to convert from one sound file format, and/or data
       format to another.  It can also change the comment, sampling rate, and volume of  a  sound
       file.   Finally, auconvert can be used to convert raw audio data into a sound file.  If no
       input file name is given, standard input will be used.  If no output file name  is  given,
       the  original  file will be replaced by the converted file or standard out will be used if
       the input is coming from standard input.

OPTIONS

       The following options may be used with auconvert:

       -file format
               The output file format.  The -? option will display a list of valid file formats.

       -data format
               The output data format.  The -? option will display a list of valid data  formats.
               Note that each file format may only support selected data formats.

       -rate sample rate
               The output sampling rate (in hertz).

       -comment comment
               The comment to be stored in the output file.

       -volume <percent>|`max'
               The  volume  option can be used in two ways.  If the argument is a percentage, the
               output file volume will be converted to the  specified  percentage  of  the  input
               volume.   If  the  argument  is  the  string `max', the output file volume will be
               converted to its maximum level.

       -raw <data format> <num tracks>
               This option is used to convert raw audio data into a sound file.  <data format> is
               the  data  format of the raw data.  <num tracks> specifies the number of tracks in
               the raw data.  You must also use the -file and -rate options when  converting  raw
               data.

       -?      Displays a usage message and a list of supported file and data formats.
