AudioMonster manipulates and transcodes audio. It wraps a number of different command line binaries such as sox, lame, flac, twolame, and ffmpeg.
The following binary tools are required. They are available via most OS package managers.
For OS X use homebrew:
brew install lame
brew install flac
brew install sox
brew install twolame --frontend
brew install madplay
brew install mp3val
brew install ffmpeg
For Redhat/CentOS use yum:
NOTE that some multimedia RPMs are available only via particular repositories. See e.g. http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/MultimediaOnCentOS7
yum install lame
yum install flac
yum install sox
yum install twolame
yum install madplay
yum install mp3val
yum install ffmpeg
yum install libsndfile-devel libsndfile-utils
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'audio_monster'And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install audio_monster
AudioMonster can be configured to use a specific tempfile directory. It can also be configured to use a binary directory, or you can configure each binary. It will default to logging to STDOUT, or a logger can be configured.
For convenience, all methods can be called from the AudioMonster module.
The monster_test.rb contains examples of method calls.
