while some of this does helps answering questions it poses some more. and
that's just the same with any question that i have been asking so far within
ilug.
but thanks for your try.

: try "man sox" at a terminal,
: or "man what_ever_you_want_to_know_about"
: this will give you the manual page on an application.

: DESCRIPTION
:        SoX  is a command line program that can convert most popular audio
: files to most other popular audio file  formats.
:        It  can  optionally  change the audio sample data type and
:        apply one or more sound effects to the  file  during  this
:        translation.
:
:        There  are  two  types of audio files formats that SoX can
:        work with.  The first are  self-describing  file  formats.
:        These  contain a header that completely describe the
characteristics
: of the audio data that follows.
:
:        The second type are headerless data, or  sometimes  called
:        raw  data.   A user must pass enough information to SoX on
:        the command line so that it knows what  type  of  data  it
:        contains.
