SoX on OS X

Downloading SoX

You can find binaries and installers for SoX on its sourceforge downloads page The current version the last time this page was updated was 14.4.1. Download sox-14.4.1-macosx.zip from the Sourceforge page, unzip it, and put the unzipped folder somewhere where it'll stay permanently (like /Applications).

Adding SoX to your path



In the 
Terminal application,
 go 
to 
your 
home
 directory and list all of the files in it.

cd ~
ls -a

Look towards the top of the list for a file called .bash_login or .bash_profile. If there isn't one, you can create it by typing

touch .bash_profile

Open the file:

open .bash_profile

Add the following line to the end of the file.

export PATH=$PATH:/Applications/sox-14.4.1

If you put the SoX folder in a directory other than /Applications, change this line accordingly. Save and close .bash_login

Checking for success

Close and reopen the Terminal window. Type in

which sox

The Terminal should print back

Applications/sox-14.4.1/sox
