Greetings list,

I've been having a go at preparing some music on hold from CDs clients have 
supplied, but quality seems really rather poor over compressed channels (tried 
g729, GSM and Speex). I've been doing the following:

sox -v 0.15 <filename.wav> -t raw -r 8000 -s -w -c 1 <filename.sln> resample -ql

As I understand it, I'm reducing volume to 15% (which sounds about right 
volume-wise) and downsampling to 8khz, 16-bit mono.

I know MoH over compressed links isn't ideal conditions and is never going to 
be great, but I should be able to at least make it bearable.

What's the prevailing opinion on using high and low pass filters? One would 
assume a phone handset is expected to provide frequency response in human 
speech zones, and not really much outside that (certainly not the 20hz-20khz 
one might expect of a CD).

Suggestions gratefully appreciated.

Regards,

Chris
