Paul, Sox must be compiled sox with lame and libmad to enable mp3 support for Windows. There is a 'Code Project' explaining how to do this: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/aspnet/Compiling_SOX_with_Lame.aspx Alternatively you could use ffmpeg (www.ffmpeg.org) to make the conversion: ffmpeg -i test.mp3 test.wav or use mpg123 (www.mpg123.de): mpg123 -w test.wav test.mp3 and then use normalize http://savannah.nongnu.org/download/normalize/normalize-0.7.7-win32.zip to make the volume adjustment: normalize -m 80 test.wav Best Wishes Mike Hirst Paul Martin wrote: > I’ve read and reread the win32 document but apparently I’m not doing > something correctly.
