NAME

Audio::SoundFile - Perl interface to libsndfile, a sound I/O library

SYNOPSIS

use Audio::SoundFile;
use Audio::SoundFile::Header;

$header = new Audio::SoundFile::Header(...);
$reader = new Audio::SoundFile::Reader(...);
$writer = new Audio::SoundFile::Writer(...);
...

DESCRIPTION

This module provides interface to libsndfile, available from

http://www.zip.com.au/~erikd/libsndfile/

With this library, you will be able to read, write, and manipulate sound data of more than 10 formats.

Also, in addition to read/write interface using usual Perl scalar, this module provides interface using PDL object directly. Since PDL provides efficient method to handle large bytestream, sound processing is much faster if this module and PDL is used in pair.

For rest of the details, please consult each module's document.

NOTES

I have only tested the code with .au and .wav formats.
