libsndfile is a widely used C library written by Erik de Castro Lopo for reading and writing audio files. It supports a wide variety of audio encodings and sound file formats and will convert automatically from one to another if the caller specifies a different output format from the input format. It allows the programmer to ignore many details, such as endianness.
libsndfile is available for Unix-type systems, including GNU/Linux and Mac OS X, and for Microsoft Windows. It is licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License.
