NAME

       abx - audio ABX testing software

SYNOPSIS

       abx [OPTIONS...] <SAMPLE-A> <SAMPLE-B>

DESCRIPTION

       abx  is  a  program  for  performing  software-based  audio  ABX  testing  on GNU/Linux systems. ABX test
       (Wikipedia, Hydrogenaudio) is a statistical test for assessing whether you are able to tell  for  audible
       differences  between  two  samples.  For  example,  one sample can be a compressed audio file such as OGG
       Vorbis file and another one its uncompressed variant (WAV, AU, ...).  You  can  then  use  abx  to  infer
       whether you are able to separate the two samples due to compression artifacts.
