[SoX-users] sox with homebrew voip

[Shentino <she...@gm...>]

I'm using arecord + netcat to pipe voice to someone else using netcat
+ aplay, and I'm curious if there's a way to have sox do minimal
filtering (removal of silence, possibly an anti-noise filter) with
minimal latency.

I've already tried the buffer option but I seem to be stuck with at
least a full second of latency.

Is latency inherent in using such a filter or is there an option I'm forgetting?
