I was using the beep command in the 'beep' package to generate tones. I find that it doesn't quite behave as expected. I ran the following two commands:
$ beep -f 440 -l 1000 $ beep -f 880 -l 1000 The 880 Hz sound sounded lower in pitch than 440 Hz sound. Also, it sounds out of tune with the sound generated by the following commands: $ ecasound -i tone,sine,440,1 -o alsa $ ecasound -i tone,sine,840,1 -o alsa Note that the output of this command sounds proper, i.e. 880 Hz sounds higher in pitch than 440 Hz. Is this a bug in the beep command? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
