Hello: I would like to produce some GSM Prompt audio files for a Telephone Directory Project-- and have hired a freelance audio engineer to record, and edit the actual files-- However the GSM files he gives me to upload into asterisk DO NOT work when played back throgh "Stream File" or "Get Data" in my agi. It seems that there may be more than one GSM file type (with header and without, linear compressed, quadratically compressed--etc) I have read this doc-- but we need an answer which DOES NOT USE SOX: http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Convert+WAV+audio+files+for+use+in+Asterisk Can anyone please point me to, or post the correct way to produce a high quality, asterisk acceptable, GSM file WITHOUT using SOX? We will be using PROTOOLS-Mix-Plus, or can use PROTOOLS-HD to produce our audio files-- But are looking for ANY Macintosh or PC Audio-Production software suggestion , (outside of using SOX) which will take an .aiff or .wav file and turn it into a GSM file. ANY SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED- THANX. Thanks- JJQ _________________________________________________________________ Is your PC infected?

I see from http://sox.sourceforge.net/ that it is available for Windows, and I would expect that as it compiles for BSD it would also compile for Mac OSX.

Saved as .wav and converted with sox does the job. jo
