The .sou file extension is associated with SBStudio II, a music composition and editing program. A .sou file represents a SBStudio II Sound File, which contains audio data used by the software. These files are typically used to store instrument sounds or sound effects that can be integrated into music tracks created within the SBStudio II environment. The format is designed specifically for use with the SBStudio II software, making it a specialized audio file type for music production within this specific program.
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.
