In order to do CDDB queries over the Internet, you must know the DiscID of the CD you are querying. cd-discid provides you with that information. It outputs the discid, the number of tracks, the frame offset of all of the tracks, and the total length of the CD in seconds, on one line in a space-delimited format. cd-discid was designed as a backend tool for cdgrab (now abcde) but will work independently of it.

MP3FS is a read-only FUSE filesystem which transcodes audio formats (currently FLAC) to MP3 on the fly when opened and read.

It is also a novel alternative to traditional mp3 encoder applications. Users can use their favorite file browser to select the files they want encoded and copy them somewhere.

This is a program for stretching the audio. It is suitable only for extreme sound stretching of the audio (like 50x) and for applying special effects by "spectral smoothing" the sounds. It can transform any sound/music to a texture.

It produces high quality extreme sound stretching. While most sound stretching software sounds bad when trying to stretch the sounds a lot, this one is optimized for extreme sound stretching.

The stretch amount is unlimited. You can play the stretched sound in real-time (including the possibility to "freeze" the sound) or you can render the whole sound or a part of it to audio files.

It has many post-processing effects, like: filters, pitch/frequency shifters Support for WAV, OGG VORBIS files and MP3 files.

SoX is a command line utility that can convert various formats of computer audio files in to other formats. It can also apply various effects to these sound files during the conversion. As an added bonus, SoX can play and record audio files on several unix-style platforms.

SoX is able to handle formats like Ogg Vorbis, MP3, WAV, AIFF, VOC, SND, AU, GSM and several more. Any format support requires at least libsox-fmt-base. Some formats have their own package e.g. mp3 read and write support is provided by libsox-fmt-mp3.

SoX supports most common sound architectures i.e. Alsa, Libao, OSS and Pulse (respectively provided by libsox-fmt-alsa, libsox-fmt-ao, libsox-fmt-oss and libsox-fmt-pulse). It also supports LADSPA plugins.

Dynamic range compression reduces the volume of loud sounds or amplifies quiet sounds thus reducing or compressing an audio signal's dynamic range. DC1 provides a dynamics compressor for use with JACK Audio Connection Kit. It can be used as master effect or as an effect on individual instrument tracks as well.

Input format is any file readable by libsndfile, output is either WAV (WAVEX for more than 2 channels) or CAF. Apart from resampling, users can change the sample format to 16-bit, 24-bit or float, and for 16-bit output, add dithering.

Available dithering types are rectangular, triangular and Lipschitz' optimised error feedback filter. Some examples of dithering can be seen here: https://kokkinizita.linuxaudio.org/linuxaudio/dithering.html

Ardour is a multichannel hard disk recorder (HDR) and digital audio workstation (DAW). It can be used to control, record, edit and run complex audio setups.

Ardour supports pro-audio interfaces through the ALSA project, which provides high quality, well designed device drivers and API's for audio I/O under Linux. Any interface supported by ALSA can be used with Ardour. This includes the all-digital 26 channel RME Hammerfall, the Midiman Delta 1010 and many others.

Ardour has support for 24 bit samples using floating point internally, non-linear editing with unlimited undo, a user-configurable mixer, MTC master/slave capabilities, MIDI hardware control surface compatibility.

It supports MIDI Machine Control, and so can be controlled from any MMC controller and many modern digital mixers.

Ardour contains a powerful multitrack audio editor/arranger that is completely non-destructive and capable of all standard non-linear editing operations (insert, replace, delete, move, trim, select, cut/copy/paste). The editor has unlimited undo/redo capabilities and can save independent "versions" of a track or an entire piece

Ardour's editor supports the community-developed LADSPA plugin standard. Arbitrary chains of plugins can be attached to any portion of a track. Every mixer strip can have any number of inputs and outputs, not just mono, stereo or 5.1. An N-way panner is included, with support for various panning models. Pre- and post-fader sends exist, each with their own gain and pan controls. Every mixer strip acts as its own bus, and thus the bus count in Ardour is unlimited. You can submix any number of strips into another strip.

Ardour's channel capacity is limited only by the number on your audio interface and the ability of your disk subsystem to stream the data back and forth.

JACK (the JACK Audio Connection Kit) is used for all audio I/O, permitting data to be exchanged in perfect samplesync with other applications and/or hardware audio interfaces.

Ardour is sample rate and size neutral - any hardware formats from 8 to 32 bits, and rates from 8kHz to 192kHz. Internal processing in 32/64 bit IEEE floating point format.

Further information can be found at https://ardour.org/.

cdrdao records audio or data CD-Rs in disk-at-once (DAO) mode based on a textual description of the CD contents.

Recording in disk-at-once mode writes the complete disc, i.e. lead-in, one or more tracks and lead-out, in a single step. The commonly used track-at-once (TAO) mode writes each track independently which requires link blocks between two tracks. You probably want to use this if you're copying a CD with multiple tracks, like most audio CDs.

cdrdao can also handle the bin/cue format commonly used for VCDs or disks with subchannel data.

If you just want to burn a normal data CD, you probably want wodim instead.

Mp3cat - wnpp
reads, writes, splits and combines MP3 files
License: GPL-2+
Debian package not available

mp3cat can read a stream from standard input and write to standard output. Instead of standard output, mp3cat can store MP3 data across multiple timestamped files in a directory (an "mp3dir") and another instance can follow the stream from there.

Also, mp3cat only outputs MP3 frames with valid headers, even if there is extra garbage in its input stream. This fixes up time/frame estimates in a stream created by simply concatenating mp3 files or by other utilities that add app-specific frames.

Mp3mesa - wnpp
MP3 ripper for CD to MP3 conversions
License: unknown
Debian package not available

A fork of the dormant Grip package, MP3Mesa, like Grip enables ripping from CD's to a variety of formats, and includes freedb.org lookup and also entry/update of freedb.org entries.

Mp3packer - wnpp
lossless rearranger of MP3 files to make them smaller
License: GPLv2+
Debian package not available

MP3packer is a program which attempts to save space of MP3 files by storing frame data in the smallest possible frame.

By default, the program generates the smallest MP3 possible (with the least padding), transforming Constant Bitrate (CBR) files in Variable Bitrate (VBR) files. With files generated by the LAME MP3 encoder with "--preset insane", it can result in saving of up to 10% in size, losslessly.

Furthermore, it can turn VBR files into CBR for use with players which don't support VBR.

I've created a bash shell script to convert between CD Audio, flac, ogg and mp3. It works with multiple input/output files and allows for complete preservation of audio tagging data including ReplayGain.

It is available from my personal webspace http://www.fortnight1.plus.com/software/ and is currently at version 0.5b (18th March 2008). Since it is undergoing rapid develeopment I've not fully bug-tested it and some newer features may be partly broken. It is architecture independent being a single script file.

License is LGPL, debian package contains fuller description and the README installed to /usr/share/doc/playlist has full instructions for using the current version.

Spleeter - wnpp
Source separation library including pretrained models
License: MIT
Debian package not available

Spleeter is the Deezer source separation library with pretrained models written in Python and uses Tensorflow. It makes it easy to train source separation model (assuming you have a dataset of isolated sources), and provides already trained state of the art model for performing various flavour of separation : Vocals (singing voice) / accompaniment separation (2 stems) Vocals / drums / bass / other separation (4 stems) * Vocals / drums / bass / piano / other separation (5 stems) 2 stems and 4 stems models have state of the art performances on the musdb dataset. Spleeter is also very fast as it can perform separation of audio files to 4 stems 100x faster than real-time when run on a GPU. We designed Spleeter so you can use it straight from command line as well as directly in your own development pipeline as a Python library.

Audiowmark
solution for watermarking audio files
License: GPL-3+
Debian package not available

A sound file is read by the software, and a 128-bit message is stored in a watermark in the output sound file. For human listeners, the files typically sound the same.

However, the 128-bit message can be retrieved from the output sound file. Our tests show, that even if the file is converted to mp3 or ogg (with bitrate 128 kbit/s or higher), the watermark usually can be retrieved without problems. The process of retrieving the message does not need the original audio file (blind decoding).
