Greetings,

I'm in the hunt for Linux-based command line tools that might conspire
to automate this process.


concatenate a string of WAV files
maximize volume
automagically split the big honkin file where the level falls
below a given dB level for, oh 3-5 seconds

I guess I'm sort of looking for the audio equivalent of imagemagick (a
package of nifty command line image manipulation tools).

You might have a look at ecasound:

http://www.eca.cx/

It's a quite powerful command line audio tool.

other useful CLI audio tools are sndfile-info, resample, normalize,
and sox

Free of course is preferable. :-)

Those are all licensed under GPL :-)


TIA for any insight or advice.

HTH
