tui-wave
- GitHub/Star: 23 (checked 2026-07-12).
- Keyboard-driven terminal audio editor for Linux, macOS, and Windows (mouse works too). Opens WAV files and shows a zoomable waveform you can navigate, play, and edit: selection, cut/copy/paste, undo/redo, normalize, gain, fades, reverse, trim, resample, mix-to-mono, and timeline markers with transient detection. Saves back to 16-bit, 24-bit, or 32-bit-float WAV and preserves BWF cue points across the round trip.
- Renders the waveform as an inline image in the terminal via graphics protocols (Kitty/Graphics/Protocol, Sixel, and iTerm2).
- Optionally acts as a front-end to the Composer's Desktop Project (CDP), a decades-old suite of external command-line sound-transformation tools (spectral blurring, granulation, morphing, time-stretching), with a parameter form, breakpoint-envelope automation, preview, and full undo. CDP is not bundled.
- Developed with LLM assistance by an author who works with audio rather than as a Rust developer, built to serve their own workflow.
