Free convert audio tapes to mp3 software for linux

Python Audio Tools are a collection of audio handling programs which work from the command line. These include programs for CD extraction, track conversion from one audio format to another, track renaming and retagging, track identification, CD burning from tracks, and more.
Supports internationalized track filenames and metadata using Unicode. Works with high-definition, multi-channel audio as well as CD-quality. Track conversion uses multiple CPUs or CPU cores if available to greatly speed the transcoding process. Track metadata can be retrieved from FreeDB or FreeDB-compatible servers. Audio formats supported are:
- WAV
- AIFF
- Sun AU
- FLAC
- WavPack
- Monkeys Audio
- MP3
- MP2
- Ogg Vorbis
- Ogg Speex
- M4A
Easy to install and use:
I dont like programs with lots of obscure dependencies, so Ive written Python Audio Tools to require as few external libraries and programs as possible. Most formats require only one or two common executables and some require none at all. Installation utilizes Pythons built-in distutils, but a provided makefile reduces the process to a simple "make install" command.
The programs that make up Python Audio Tools provide a consistent interface for painless switching between them. man pages are included, as is a lengthy manual for both users and programmers. See the short tutorial in the documentation for an illustration of their usage.
These Python Audio Tools are designed with Unix-like systems in mind. Although most of it is written in pure Python, the libcdio library is used to read from a CD-ROM drive. If one is willing to forgo the CD-based tools, Python Audio Tools is fully portable so long as the required helper applications are present. I have used it on the i386, x86_64 and ppc architectures without difficulty.
Standards compliant
Because Python Audio Tools sticks very close to established, documented standards, it has no trouble interoperating with other audio-handling programs. If you want to rip CDs with Exact Audio Copy, batch convert them to M4As with these tools and play them back in iTunes, thats no problem.
Enhancements:
- Revamped the track metadata system.
- Improved the file detection routines.
- Minor bugfixes.

Convert::Braille is a Perl module that can convert Between Braille Encodings.

SYNOPSIS

use Convert::Braille;

print brailleAsciiToUnicode ( "HELLO" ), "n";
print brailleDotsToAscii ( "12515123123135" ), "n";

EXPORTS
brailleDotsToUnicode
brailleUnicodeToDots
brailleUnicodeToAscii
brailleAsciiToUnicode
brailleAsciiToDots
brailleDotsToAscii

Convert::RACE is a conversion between Unicode and RACE.

SYNOPSIS

use Convert::RACE;

$domain = to_race($utf16str);
$utf16str = from_race($domain);

This module provides functions to convert between RACE (Row-based ASCII-Compatible Encoding) and Unicode Encodings.

RACE converts strings with internationalized characters into strings of US-ASCII that are acceptable as host name parts in current DNS host naming usage.

Convert::Transcribe is a Perl extension for transcribing natural languages.

SYNOPSIS

use Convert::Transcribe;

$t = new Convert::Transcribe();
$t->fromfile(filename);
# or
$t = new Convert::Transcribe();
$t->fromstring("transcription def. containing newlines");
# or
$t = new Convert::Transcribe(filename);
# or
$t = new Convert::Transcribe("transcription def. containing newlines");

$t->transcribe("text");

$t->generated_code(); # for debugging

Convert::Braille::English is a Perl module that can convert Between Braille Encodings.

SYNOPSIS

use Convert::Braille;

print brailleAsciiToEnglish ( "HELLO" ), "n";
print brailleDotsToEnglish ( "12515123123135" ), "n";

EXPORTS
englishToBrailleUnicode

Audio::Daemon::MPG321 is a song queue daemon for Audio::Play::MPG321.

SYNOPSIS

use Audio::Daemon::MPG321; my $player = new Audio::Daemon::MPG321 ("/home/dabreegster/foo.mp3", "/home/dabreegster/bar.mp3");
$SIG{CHLD} = IGNORE; $player->add("/home/dabreegster/blah.mp3");
while (1) { until ($player->{player}->state() == 0) { $player->{player}->poll(); select(undef, undef, undef, 1.0); } $player->{pointer}++; unless ($player->{queue}->[$player->{pointer}]) { exit 0; } else { $player->load(); } }

This daemonizes Audio::Play::MPG321, or at least gives it the ability to manage a song queue. You can build a simple queue of songs and move between them.
Note the infinite loop in the synopsis. You must put this in your program or the queue wont work!

All it does is keep Audio::Play::MPG321s knowledge of the state of the player fresh and continously tests to see if one song is over so the next can be loaded. The code is kept out of the module itself because this process must be done, one way or the other, and forking in the module itself is very messy.

The example loop will work fine and you may modify it any way you like to incoorporate it into your frontend, as long as you poll the player, test to see if the song is finished yet, and load the next song in the queue (If there is one!) when it is time to do so.

Audio Transcriber records large audio samples, like a tape or radio broadcast, to your hard drive and splits it into tracks to be burned onto CD-R media.

The goal of Audio Transcriber is to make it easy to transfer audio tapes, LPs, or radio broadcasts to tracks on CD-R/CD-RW.
