Hi DGPickett...
Certainly not 8 bytes for a single shot, that is for sure!
If it is possible to generate a "sinewave.mp3" _sinewave_ file, or any known waveshape for that matter, for 8 seconds inside 7 simple lines of code that anyone can understand without first recording said waveform then I would be mighty interested... ;o)

This is a small program as a tester for a basic sweep generator for bandwidth testing of AudioScope.sh.
This DEMO is only capable of 4KHz down to about 85Hz and back due to the low bit rate, but it is proof of concept for a much wider variant using a much higher bit rate.

Hi all...
Well I have not been inactive but working out how to make OSX 10.14.x command line audio player have a variable sample rate.

festival_client
FESTIVAL(1) General Commands Manual FESTIVAL(1)
NAME
festival_client - client access to festiva; text-to-speech server mode
SYNOPSIS
festival_client [options] [file0] [file1] ...
DESCRIPTION
Allows sending commands and/or test to a festival test-to-speech server. Festival may be started in server mode using the option --server
festival-client allows waveforms to be generated faster as not time is required for start up. See the festival manual for more details on
recommended use.
OPTIONS
--server <string>
hostname (or IP number) of server
--port <int> {1314}
port number of server process (1314)
--output <string>
file to save output waveform to
--otype <string> {riff}
output type for waveform
--passwd <string>
server passwd in plain text (optional)
--prolog <string>
filename containing commands to be sent to the server before standard commands (useful when using --ttw)
--async Asynchronous mode, server may send back multiple waveforms per text file
--ttw Text to waveform: take text from first arg or stdin get server to return waveform(s) stored in output or operated on by aucommand.
--withlisp
Output lisp replies from server.
--tts_mode <string>
TTS mode for file (default is fundamental).
--aucommand <string>
command to be applied to each waveform retruned from server. Use $FILE in string to refer to waveform file
BUGS
This still isn't as general as it should be. It seems to require lots of special little options which suggests the general options aren't
right.
