Hey, please watch out for the commands in the previous mail and results of my testing. I used  22500 but should have used 22050 - my bad! Let me know if you need me to re-upload the files correctly or if you're gonna convert them.

OK, I resampled them from Audacity.
I notice this preserves metadata, though this is minor.

Testing sounds is a lot of work. So I decided to take small steps. Haha I didn't plan for this pun.

Because the sound I tested is stairs.wav

Here's a comparison video:

https://youtu.be/HESt6aQ8PK0

I used

sox INPUT.wav -r 22500 -c 1 stairs.wav

with https://freesound.org/people/qubodup/sounds/442770/

Warning: if you change the bitrate to 8, the sound will be horrible, I recommend you keep it at 16 bit

Good. There was a stairs.wav already which I didn't properly mark in the web page.
I replaced it with your version which I find better.

Now I feel like testing more, how about save.wav?

https://youtu.be/pEO07O7Oel0

sox INPUT.wav -r 22500 -c 1 save.wav

https://freesound.org/people/qubodup/sounds/442825/

The original is also 16bit. Nice thing about my replacement: it loops without a click, as opposed to the original.

Great job!
I really missed this one.

I tested my suggested picker.wav and quack.wav and didn't like them. Putting it on my to-redo-list

///

I don't think I can test sword1.wav or steps.wav quickly.

I added a new signpost in "soundtest" to test these. Let me know if that works for you.

axe.wav sounds good to me

https://youtu.be/LMAt6f1j5h4

sox INPUT.wav -r 22500 -c 1 axe.wav  

https://freesound.org/people/qubodup/sounds/442903/

Here's a zip of all three converted files:

Let me know whether it helps if I do testing like this.

Nice one as well!

All those 3 are included in the Git repository, I also rebuilt https://play.freedink.org/


Btw I spotted your video about sound testing and I took the liberty to link it from
https://www.gnu.org/software/freedink/doc/sounds/
Let me know if that's OK.

Thanks!
