Feb 2, 2024 at 17:07 comment added porg @esaruoho Put the whole alias value in quotes and escape the dollar symbols with a backslash: alias 2wav="afconvert -f WAVE -d LEI32 \$1 \$1.wav".
Dec 11, 2022 at 5:44 comment added Jadent To convert a whole folder of files at once you can use something like the following: for f in *.aif ; do afconvert -f WAVE -d LEI32 "$f" -o "${f%.aif}.wav"; done
Nov 21, 2020 at 22:07 comment added esaruoho Thanks @Nic much appreciated, seemed to work!!
Nov 21, 2020 at 20:11 comment added Nic @esaruoho Try a shell function instead. 2wav() { afconvert -f WAVE -d LEI32 ${1} ${1}.wav ; }
Nov 21, 2020 at 19:48 comment added esaruoho Thank you! I tried making this into an alias, (the .m4a to .wav conversion), but wasn't able to. I keep getting "unknown error occurred" :O alias 2wav='afconvert -f WAVE -d LEI32 $1 $1.wav'
