I work on enhancement of audio modules testing [1], and I need free (in both senses) small sample audio files in different formats. We already have audiotest.au (mono, and sunau has a bug in processing multichannel files [2]) and Sine-1000Hz-300ms.aif, but this is not enough. I have generated a pack of files like Sine-1000Hz-300ms.aif by Python, it is enough for regression testing but only if current implementation is correct. I found some collections of sample files at [3], but I'm not sure about copyright, and perhaps they are a little too big. In ideal it should be one high-quality (float64?) multichannel (5+1?) but short master file and it's lower-quality copies made by third-party tools. In ideal the content should be related to Python.

If you want to edit, shorten, convert sounds between different formats, you can try Audacity, a free sound editor: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ Regards Antoine.

Yes, Audacity is great.
Use your microphone, say "python" and save the file in your favorite file format. Try for example Audacity. I suppose that you don't need specific audio content and you don't need a huge file. Victor 2013/9/11 Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka@gmail.com>:

And if you don't want your voice in the test suite forever you can see if you can convince Guido to say "Python" into a microphone.

Wouldn't his name be enough? http://www.python.org/~guido/guido.au Oleg. -- Oleg Broytman http://phdru.name/ phd@phdru.name Programmers don't die, they just GOSUB without RETURN.

It is Lib/test/audiotest.au. 1-channel and 8-bit. No, it wouldn't enough.

My voice is even more ugly than my English. I don't want perpetuate it in Python test suite.

I have some pro-audio recording capabilities and would be happy to generate some copyright-donated clips for Python. Please contact me off-list if needed. -Barry

How about "Python is a great programming language." Long enough?
