A pure 1000 Hz sine tone, 3 seconds, 16-bit 44.1 kHz mono: a clean reference signal for level metering, spectrum analysis, and waveform rendering.

A 1 kHz sine tone sampled at 16000 Hz: part of a sample-rate ladder (8/16/44.1/48/96 kHz) of the identical tone, for testing resampling, sample-rate detection, and aliasing.

A 1 kHz sine tone sampled at 44100 Hz: part of a sample-rate ladder (8/16/44.1/48/96 kHz) of the identical tone, for testing resampling, sample-rate detection, and aliasing.

A 1 kHz sine tone sampled at 48000 Hz: part of a sample-rate ladder (8/16/44.1/48/96 kHz) of the identical tone, for testing resampling, sample-rate detection, and aliasing.

A 1 kHz sine tone sampled at 8000 Hz: part of a sample-rate ladder (8/16/44.1/48/96 kHz) of the identical tone, for testing resampling, sample-rate detection, and aliasing.

A 1 kHz sine tone sampled at 96000 Hz: part of a sample-rate ladder (8/16/44.1/48/96 kHz) of the identical tone, for testing resampling, sample-rate detection, and aliasing.

A pure 220 Hz sine tone, 3 seconds, 16-bit 44.1 kHz mono: a clean reference signal for level metering, spectrum analysis, and waveform rendering.

A pure 440 Hz sine tone, 3 seconds, 16-bit 44.1 kHz mono: a clean reference signal for level metering, spectrum analysis, and waveform rendering.

A 440 Hz sine tone stored as 16-bit PCM: part of a bit-depth ladder (8/16/24-bit) of the identical tone, for testing bit-depth conversion, dithering, and quantisation-noise handling.

A 440 Hz sine tone stored as 24-bit PCM: part of a bit-depth ladder (8/16/24-bit) of the identical tone, for testing bit-depth conversion, dithering, and quantisation-noise handling.

A 440 Hz sine tone stored as 8-bit PCM: part of a bit-depth ladder (8/16/24-bit) of the identical tone, for testing bit-depth conversion, dithering, and quantisation-noise handling.

A six-channel 5.1 surround WAV that plays a 1-second tone in each channel in turn, in the standard WAV order (FL, FR, C, LFE, SL, SR). A fixture for testing multichannel decoding, downmixing, and channel-order handling.

The clip as raw AAC in an ADTS stream: the codec behind most streaming and mobile audio. For testing AAC decoders and remux into MP4.

The clip as AC-3 (Dolby Digital): the multichannel codec used in DVD/broadcast. Rendered here in stereo; for testing AC-3 decoding and conversion.

A pure 1 kHz sine tone stored as AIFF: Apple's big-endian 16-bit PCM container, 3 seconds, 44.1 kHz mono. A clean reference for testing AIFF decoders and WAV↔AIFF conversion.

A pure 440 Hz sine tone stored as AIFF: Apple's big-endian 16-bit PCM container, 3 seconds, 44.1 kHz mono. A clean reference for testing AIFF decoders and WAV↔AIFF conversion.

The clip as Apple Lossless (ALAC) in an M4A container: lossless, unlike the AAC M4A twin. For testing ALAC decoding and lossless conversion.

The clip resampled to 8 kHz mono and encoded as AMR narrowband: the telephony/voice-note codec. For testing AMR decoding and speech-codec conversion.

Short synthetic cue tone for “one”: clean reference for wake-word / digit ASR smoke tests.

Noisy twin of the “one” cue tone (~5 dB SNR).

Short synthetic cue tone for “zero”: clean reference for wake-word / digit ASR smoke tests.

Noisy twin of the “zero” cue tone (~5 dB SNR).

Extra synthetic digit utterance 0000 (zero zero zero zero): clean twin.

Noisy twin of digit sequence 0000.
