Perhaps I can also explain a bit more about the requirements for LiVES.
Each clip with audio in LiVES has a raw pcm file. The rate can be
anything, and is stored as part of the clip. The number of channels can
be currently mono or stereo.


Ah I should mention also that bits per sample can be 8 or 16, big endian 
or little endian, and signed or unsigned. All of this information is 
also stored per clip in LiVES.




A further requirement is to be able to identify pcm wav files, in order 
to extract info before removing the wav header: rate, channels, bits per 
sample, signedness, and endianness.

Salsaman.
