Here are my business needs:
- Server receives a noisy
noisy.m4afile - Server creates a noise-reduced
noiseless.m4afile for further processing
I want this noise-reduction to be as fast as possible; hence, I'd like to avoid using ffmpeg to go from .m4a to .mp3 for SoX noise profiling, and back to .m4a after SoX outputs a .mp3.
Is it possible to compile and configure SoX for AAC support out of the box? My system is on Amazon Linux with the yum package manager - as simple a setup is of course, preferred to a laborious one.
If however, it is absolutely essential to couple ffmpeg with sox, then it'd be great to have a piped shell-command that avoids creating a bunch of scratchpad/temporary files.
Thanks for your time!
