3. Other useful sound utilities
This section has nothing to do with the actual playing of sound files. Rather, it is a collection of some sound utilities that one might find useful.
3.1 volume
This is a simple command line interface for controlling the
volume (what else could it be?). It also has a separate
program with a Tcl/Tk interface included in the package for
controlling the volume and playing .au sound files. A
very simple Tcl/Tk CD player is also included.
This is Freeware and it is written by Sam Lantinga
(slouken@cs.ucdavis.edu).
It can be obtained from ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/apps/sound/soundcard/volume-2.1.tar.gz.
3.2 Sound Studio
This is a Tcl/Tk application that supports playback,
recording, and editing of digital sound using sox. It
includes sox in the distribution to avoid compatibility
problems.
This was written by Paul Sharpe and N. J. Bailey
(N.J.Bailey@leeds.ac.uk). It may be freely used and
redistributed if a postcard is sent.
It can be found at Sound Studio's home page.
3.3 Tickle Music
This beta Tcl/Tk program is a music file browser that
allows you to play various sound formats as long as an
appropriate program to play it is on your system. By
default gmod is used for playing MOD files and mp
for playing MIDI files (you can change the source to use
other programs).
