AIFF is Audio Interchange File Format, a format for storing digital audio samples in a file. AIFF-C is a newer version of the format that includes the ability to compress the audio data.</p> <div class="admonition note"> <p class="first admonition-title">Note</p> <p class="last">Some operations may only work under IRIX; these will raise <a class="reference internal" href="exceptions.html#exceptions.ImportError" title="exceptions.ImportError"><code class="xref py py-exc docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">ImportError</span></code></a> when attempting to import the <code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">cl</span></code> module, which is only available on IRIX.</p> </div> <p>Audio files have a number of parameters that describe the audio data. The sampling rate or frame rate is the number of times per second the sound is sampled. The number of channels indicate if the audio is mono, stereo, or quadro. Each frame consists of one sample per channel. The sample size is the size in bytes of each sample. Thus a frame consists of <em>nchannels</em>*<em>samplesize</em> bytes, and a second’s worth of audio consists of <em>nchannels</em>*<em>samplesize</em>*<em>framerate</em> bytes.</p> <p>For example, CD quality audio has a sample size of two bytes (16 bits), uses two channels (stereo) and has a frame rate of 44,100 frames/second. This gives a frame size of 4 bytes (2*2), and a second’s worth occupies 2*2*44100 bytes (176,400 bytes).</p> <p>Module <a class="reference internal" href="#module-aifc" title="aifc: Read and write audio files in AIFF or AIFC format."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">aifc</span></code></a> defines the following function:</p> <dl class="function"> <dt id="aifc.open"> <code class="descclassname">aifc.</code><code class="descname">open</code><span class="sig-paren">(</span><em>file</em><span class="optional">[</span>, <em>mode</em><span class="optional">]</span><span class="sig-paren">)</span><a class="headerlink" href="#aifc.open" title="Permalink to this definition">¶</a></dt> <dd><p>Open an AIFF or AIFF-C file and return an object instance with methods that are described below.
