This software is used to play MPEG files. This plays mpeg files finely! Launch this program thus:
#plaympeg <file-name>
As of now this player does not support MPEG2. Also this player can play MP3 audio files.
This is a good audio-CD player for Linux. It has also a Track Editor.
This another audio CD player for Linux.
This is a good CD-ripper in Linux. It is command-line driven:
#cdparanoia [options] span [outfile]
The 'options' we will discuss later. 'Span' refers to the song number & the time. For eg., if you want to convert the third song in the CD, you will have to put "3" in the span field. 'Outfile' refers to outfile! Some important options are:
| -w | save as WAV file |
| -f | save as AIFF file |
| -v | view details while processing |
| -q | no details while processing |
| -h | help |
The popular MP3 encoder in its Linux avatar. Visit bladeenc.mp3.no to install it. Its usage is as simple as:
#bladeenec [input.wav] [output.wav]
The output filename is optional. You can encode multiple files using the '*' wildcard function.
This is a WinAmp clone. It supports WinAmp skins, can open WinAmp play-list files. You can copy the skins to the directory named .xmms/Skins found under your home directory. Launch this app by:

Not running X? But tempted to listen to that mp3 in your disk? Don't start X for this purpose, for you have the excellent mpg123 to play your MP3 files through the command-line.
Use this app to play a wide variety of audio formats. WAV, AU & AIFF are some of the formats supported.
My friend Vaideesh asked me whether we can record voice in Linux. I had assumed that whatever that can be done on Windows can be done in Linux. But when he asked me this I was unable to reply. Thus my search began. This is what I have found. Open this app thus:
#rec <filename>
Record your voice. Press Ctrl+c to stop recording.
Note:If your microphone volume is set low, your voice will not be recorded! Open a mix app like aumix. If you are using aumix use the 'down' arrow key to select 'Mix'. Then use the right arrow key to increase the volume. Don't increase it too much, or your computer will shout back at you! Now use rec.
Play your MIDI files using this.
Convert between sound formats, add sound effects. Unfortunately this is purely command-line driven. The usage is as under:
#sox infile outfile [ effect [effect options]]
This app does not support MP3. Read its man page to get yourself acquainted with this excellent app.
Eg. To convert *.wav file to *.au format:
#sox bell.wav bell.au
Now you have the *.au file which you can use with your Java project!
View stunning graphics while you play music! Start:
#extace
Adjust your volume control using this tool.
Another app to adjust volume.
Yet another app to adjust audio mix. Only this does not require X to be running.
