Having had to do some mass audio stuff on datasets recently I discovered SoX - a self proclaimed "swiss army knife" for sound processing. Delighted to find multiple bindings in Go, I eventually decided to just do it in python as there was a very solid library there and it was just simpler for my use case.

The command line application is also quite useful. Usually you wouldn't need to go into a programming language at all to wield its power

Yeah you're right it is. I was strongly considering just writing a bash script but I had a bunch of probabilistic stuff going on for using effects, so stuck with python.

I've had good luck writing ruby scripts that just shell out to Sox because I didn't feel like learning the API
