NAME
       auconvert - perform various conversion operations on sound
       files

SYNOPSIS
       auconvert  [-file  <format>]   [-data   <format>]   [-rate
       <sample rate>]  [-comment  <comment>]  [-raw <data format>
       <num tracks>]	 [-volume      <percent>|`max']	     [-?]
       [<input file>] [<output file>]

DESCRIPTION
       The  auconvert  program	can  be	 used to convert from one
       sound file format, and/or data format to another.  It  can
       also  change  the  comment, sampling rate, and volume of a
       sound file.  Finally, auconvert can be used to convert raw
       audio  data  into  a sound file.	 If no input file name is
       given, standard input will be used.   If	 no  output  file
       name  is	 given, the original file will be replaced by the
       converted file or standard out will be used if  the  input
       is coming from standard input.

OPTIONS
       The following options may be used with auconvert:

       -file format
	       The  output  file format.  The -? option will dis
	       play a list of valid file formats.

       -data format
	       The output data format.	The -? option  will  dis
	       play a list of valid data formats.  Note that each
	       file format may only support  selected  data  for
	       mats.

       -rate sample rate
	       The output sampling rate (in hertz).

       -comment comment
	       The comment to be stored in the output file.

       -volume <percent>|`max'
	       The volume option can be used in two ways.  If the
	       argument is a percentage, the output  file  volume
	       will  be	 converted to the specified percentage of
	       the input volume.  If the argument is  the  string
	       `max', the output file volume will be converted to
	       its maximum level.

       -raw <data format> <num tracks>
	       This option is used to convert raw audio data into
	       a sound file.  <data format> is the data format of
	       the raw data.  <num tracks> specifies  the  number
	       of  tracks in the raw data.  You must also use the
	       -file and -rate options when converting raw  data.
