Converting Stereo Samples to Mono

Post by domminicus51 » Tue Mar 21, 2006 10:13 pm

Anyone know of any freebie programs that would be able to easily convert a lot of stereo one shot wav samples to mono wavs?

Goldwave?

I'd use Cool Edit or Sound Forge in batch mode personally but those aren't free.

cygwin+gcc+sox on Windows
probably just gcc+sox on OSX (guesswork)
linux: sox is either already installed or on your distribution's CD

sox -c 2 stereo.wav -c 1 mono.wav avg 0.5,0.5

not freeware, open source!
