Autools

autools is a collection of several C programs to play, record, generate, modify, and analyse audio files on Linux/Solaris/IRIX/Win32. It includes native support for 16 bit .au and raw files. If linked with the AFsp library, most common audio file formats are supported.

Beep

beep does what you'd expect: it beeps. But unlike printf("\a"), beep allows you to control pitch, duration, and repetitions. Its job is to live inside shell/perl scripts and allow more granularity than one has otherwise. It is controlled completely through command line options. It's not supposed to be complex, and it isn't - but it makes system monitoring (or whatever else it gets hacked onto) that much more informative.

DarkIce

DarkIce is an Icecast, Icecast2, and Shoutcast live audio streamer. It takes audio input from a sound card, encodes it into MP3/Ogg Vorbis, and sends the stream to one or more servers (Icecast/Shoutcast if it's MP3, and Icecast2 if it's Ogg Vorbis).

ERec

erec is a tool program for recording raw audio stream from the soundcard. Multiple instances of erec can be running at the same time sharing the same audio device. It works as a frontend to the audio device for programs wishing to listen at the same time.

Honeyd

Honeyd is a small daemon that creates virtual hosts on a network. The hosts can be configured to run arbitrary services, and their TCP personality can be adapted so that they appear to be running certain versions of operating systems. Honeyd enables a single host to claim multiple addresses on a LAN for network simulation. It is possible to ping the virtual machines, or to traceroute them. Any type of service on the virtual machine can be simulated according to a simple configuration file. Instead of simulating a service, it is also possible to proxy it to another machine.

Jooky

LAoE

LAoE is a graphical audiosample-editor, based on multi-layers, floating-point samples, volume-masks, variable selection-intensity, and many plugins suitable to manipulate sound, such as filtering, retouching, resampling, graphical spectrogram editing by brushes and rectangles, sample-curve editing by freehand-pen and spline and other interpolation curves, effects like reverb, echo, compress, expand, pitch-shift, time-stretch, and much more.

Maudio

Maudio is a simple audio mirroring device (a sort of audio pipe). Unlike a filesystem pipe, maudio behaves as a hardware soundcard. In particular, after installation of the driver, you get two audio-like devices (usually /dev/dsp0 and /dev/dsp1) which are connected to each other. Everything sent to the first DSP will appear as sound data on the second DSP and vice versa.

MCFoo

MC Foo is an advanced, and adaptive ogg/mp3 jukebox server, with continuous music playing. There are no static playlists; MC Foo uses a play- queue that you can view and alter. It will learn what music you like and dislike, and adjust the play- queue automatically. It can be controlled from any hosts via TCP/IP, and even with infrared remote controllers. It allows multiple user/preference profiles, according to who's listening, and his or her mood.

Streamripper

streamripper records shoutcast-compatible streams. For shoutcast style streams it finds the "meta data" or track separation data, and uses that as a marker for where the track should be separated. For live365 streams it hits the Web site and finds when a track has changed. Either way, the MP3 data will be decoded and scanned for a silent point which is where tracks will be created.

Streamtuner

streamtuner is a Perl/GTK+ SHOUTcast browser. It will connect to the SHOUTcast Web server and retrieve the list of available audio streams. Stateful behaviour, themes support, and a natural user interface are some of its features.
