They all need to call sox_format_init() for dynamically-loaded formats and to add the extra_usage field of sox_effect_handler_t |

README.md
The SoX_ng project imports, compares and refines bug fixes and
new work from the 50-odd software distributions that package SoX
and from the plethora of forks on github and elsewhere
and makes regular releases with a six-monthly cadence
for each of the micro (bug fixes) and minor (new features) releases.
A major release (non-backwards-compatible changes) is not planned.
The next micro release is scheduled for the 18th August 2025.
The next minor release is scheduled for the 18th November 2025.
Terminology
sox means sox.sf.net
SoX means the Swiss Army Knife of command-line audio processing in any of its incarnations
sox_ng means the hard fork of sox-14.4.2 aiming to sanitize SoX
SoX_ng means the project to maintain sox_ng
How to get it
sox_ng lives at
codeberg.org/sox_ng/sox_ng
and is composed of a SoX code base, a wiki and an issue tracker.
Releases
Download one of the release tarballs.
Extract it:
gzip -d < sox_ng-*.tar.gz | tar xf -
Build it:
cd sox_ng*
./configure
make
On most systems you should only get two compiler warnings
about #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS
Install it:
make install
It installs as sox_ng, sox_ng.h, libsox_ng.so and so on
so that sox and sox_ng can coexist on the same system.
To make it work the same as the original sox, use
./configure --enable-replace
Development branches
main
To fetch the latest version:
git clone https://codeberg.org/sox_ng/sox_ng
cd sox_ng
and to make local copies of the wiki and the issues:
git clone https://codeberg.org/sox_ng/sox_ng.wiki wiki
issues/getissues.sh
To compile it:
autoreconf -i
./configure
make
and to install it:
sudo make install
This installs it as sox_ng, sox_ng.h, libsox_ng and so on,
so that it can coexist with traditional sox. If you want it to work
the same as the original sox, use ./configure --enable-replace
and if ffmpeg is installed add --with-ffmpeg to decode 48 more
audio and video formats.
Build dependencies
To compile a release tarball you will need make, libtool
and gcc or clang (./configure CC=clang)
To build the git repository you will also need autoconf and automake.
To enable all of SoX's optional modules you can install
ladspa-sdk
lame,
libao,
libfftw3,
libflac,
libid3tag,
libmad
libogg,
libopus,
libopusfile,
libpng,
libsndfile,
libspeex,
libspeexdsp,
libvorbis,
opencore-amr,
twolame,
wavpack.
Debian, Ubuntu, Mint etc.
apt install gcc make libtool ladspa-sdk libao-dev libasound2-dev libfftw3-dev \
libgsm1-dev libid3tag0-dev libltdl-dev libmad0-dev libmagic-dev \
libmp3lame-dev libopencore-amrnb-dev libopencore-amrwb-dev \
libopusfile-dev libpng-dev libpulse-dev libsamplerate0-dev \
libsndfile1-dev libspeex-dev libspeexdsp-dev libtwolame-dev \
libvorbis-dev libwavpack-dev
and to run issues/getissues.sh and the makehtml.sh scripts you will need
apt-get install jq libtext-multimarkdown-perl
Fedora, Red Hat, CentOS etc.
yum install gcc make libtool \
alsa-lib-devel fftw-devel file-devel flac-devel gsm-devel \
ladspa-devel lame-devel libao-devel libcaca-devel libid3tag-devel \
libmad-devel libpng-devel libsamplerate-devel libsndfile-devel \
libtool-ltdl-devel libvorbis-devel opencore-amr-devel \
opusfile-devel pulseaudio-libs-devel speex-devel speexdsp-devel \
twolame-devel wavpack-devel
and to run issues/getissues.sh and the makehtml.sh scripts you will need
yum install jq multimarkdown
Accessibility
You can edit and commit to the code and the wiki using Codeberg's web interface or from the command-line. The command-line is the only way to add images and attachments to the wiki.
The issues can be downloaded as well as uploaded replacing all remote content but this risks overwriting changes made via the web interface so for now it is recommended to edit them on the Codeberg web site.
