If arg is a floating point number that gain is applied uniformly to the input. Alternatively it could be a file name which specifies a breakpoint file for varying the gain for different periods. o -S integer = Indicate at which sample to start to mix in the next input file. o -T fpnum = Indicate at which time (in seconds) to start to mix in the next input file. o -1 = Mix in channel 1 from next sound file. o -2 = Mix in channel 2 from next sound file. o -3 = Mix in channel 3 from next sound file. o -4 = Mix in channel 4 from next sound file. o -^ intx inty = Mix in channel x from next sound file as channel y in the output. o -v = Verbose mode. o -R = Continually rewrite the header while writing soundfile (WAV/AIFF). o -H integer = Show a "heart-beat" to indicate progress, in style 1, 2 or 3. o -N = Alert call (usually ringing the bell) when finished. o -o fname = output file name (default: test.wav) EXAMPLES
