- Description
- The 8SVX file format, short for "8-Bit Sampled Voice," is an audio file type used primarily on the Amiga computer system. Developed as part of the Electronic Arts Interchange File Format (IFF), which was a versatile container format designed to hold various types of multimedia, 8SVX files specifically store 8-bit mono sound samples. These files are characterized by their ability to hold digitized sound data, such as musical compositions or sound effects.
- SPHERE (SPeech HEader Resources) is a file format defined by NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) and is used with speech audio. SoX can read these files when they contain μ-law and PCM data. It will ignore any header information that says the data is compressed using shorten compression and will treat the data as either μ-law or PCM. This will allow SoX and the command line shorten program to be run together using pipes to encompasses the data and then pass the result to SoX for processing.
