Snack Sound Toolkit

If you're looking for a powerful sound toolkit, you may want to consider Snack Sound Toolkit. This software solution adds a range of commands for sound play and record, as well as sound visualization such as waveforms and spectrograms. With support for in-memory sound objects, file-based audio, streaming audio, WAV, AU, AIFF, and MP3 file formats, as well as synchronous and asynchronous playback, it provides a lot of flexibility as well. The visualization canvas items update in real-time and can output PostScript.

What's more, new commands and file formats can be added using the Snack C-API. Using Snack, you can create powerful multi-platform audio applications with just a few lines of code. Snack offers basic sound handling commands including playback, recording, file, and socket I/O. It also provides primitives for sound visualization, such as waveforms and spectrograms. While Snack was developed mainly to handle digital recordings of speech, it is equally useful for general audio. Snack has also successfully been applied to other one-dimensional signals.

One of Snack's advantages is that the combination of Snack and a scripting language makes it possible to create sound tools and applications with a minimum of effort. This is due to the rapid development nature of scripting languages. Moreover, you get an application that is cross-platform from the start, and it is easy to integrate Snack-based applications with existing sound analysis software.

So, if you're in need of a versatile sound toolkit with easy-to-use commands, Snack Sound Toolkit could be a great choice for you.
