Installing SoX (optional)

SoX is used by Voxlert for audio post-processing (echo, normalization). Voxlert works without it, but with SoX you get richer character sound. Install the sox binary so it’s on your PATH.

macOS

Using Homebrew:

brew install sox

Windows

Choose one of the following:

  • Chocolatey: choco install sox
  • Scoop: scoop install sox
  • Manual: Download the SoX Windows binaries and add the folder containing sox.exe to your PATH (e.g. Settings → System → About → Advanced system settings → Environment Variables → Path → Edit → New → paste the folder path).

Linux

  • Debian / Ubuntu: sudo apt install sox
  • Fedora / RHEL: sudo dnf install sox
  • Arch: sudo pacman -S sox

Verify

Check that SoX is installed and on your PATH:

sox --version
