Re: [microsound] (ot) Digital corruption tools?

Richard,

I use MATLAB to alter both sound and images.  I use this for work normally 
to do digital signal processing on satellite images.

As far as putting files on speakers, I worry that the files will be so 
corrupt that they will not be able to be opened.

Another thought is to open the jpeg in a text editor, basically opening a 
binary as a text file, and copying and pasting sections.  Do not do this to 
the beginning or the end of the file, you might mess up the header 
information and the file will not open up.
