Don't forget if you want to trim the extra mp3 part off you can always do one of these: If you're running it through bash: sox $currfile z${currfile%%.*}.ogg tempo $incspeedby Or for (some/most?) other shells: sox $currfile z`basename $currfile .mp3`.ogg tempo $incspeedby The advantage of using bash and (therefore) the first option is as you don't have to specify the ORIGINAL extension, you can simply combine your 2 conversion loops into 1, looking for all ogg and mp3. I didn't realise sox could do this btw, so thanks :) “This means HPR069.mp3 becomes zHPR069.mp3.ogg which is a little annoying, bu t not a huge problem.”

I used a program called soundstretch which eliminated the chipmunk effect.
