The "Output Format" is the type of data saved in the file. To convert the input floating point data to 16 bit PCM, you need to specify a compression value of WAV_FORMAT_PCM (and set nbits to 16).
Something like:
wavwrite(y, filename, nbits=16, compression=WAVE_FORMAT_PCM)
from wav.jl.
The error that you received:
ERROR: 16 bits is not supported for WAVE_FORMAT_IEEE_FLOAT.
is because no one has implemented support for half width (16 bit) floats. It should be possible now that Julia has support for the type.
from wav.jl.
Thank you, that works.
Coming from Matlab, I just assumed that if I passed nbits=16
or nbits=8
the conversion would be done automatically, without the need to explicitly do compression=WAVE_FORMAT_PCM
. Maybe this could be made clearer in the documentation.
Question: would it be interesting to automatically determine the compression scheme from nbits
? This seems possible based on the tables in the wavwrite
section of the documentation:
nbits
= {8, 16, 24} -> compression=WAVE_FORMAT_PCM
nbits
= 32 -> compression=WAVE_FORMAT_IEEE_FLOAT
Though I just checked and it is also possible to use compression=WAVE_FORMAT_PCM
for nbits=32
. In this case (nbits=32
), the choice between WAVE_FORMAT_PCM
and WAVE_FORMAT_IEEE_FLOAT
could be made based on the y data type (integer vs single or double). Obviously, I'm talking about default values; the user should be able to override this by explicitly providing a value for the compression
argument.
Am I missing something here?

There is some code that implements part of your request. In practice, I find it a bit too subtle. Generally, I want to choose how the samples are encoded in the file.
Despite the questionable usefulness, do you have an suggestions to make the feature easier to find?
