2.0.3 - 10.8.4 MS ADPCM Conversion causing major distortion

I tried a few different bash scripts but I got errors. I’ve no doubt they were user errors. What would be convenient is if I could set up the shell script in an Automator application and run that on a folder or something. I think I was missing some combo of -r (recursive) and some sort of variable placeholder for the file names. Also I was getting a permission denied script, presumably because I was probably trying to write a file to the wrong place. I know a bunch of bash commands but I’m not great at putting them together so if you had some advice on how to set up a repeatable action I’d greatly appreciate it.

There’s a topic here that looks like it should be useful. In particular, see this post: https://forum.audacityteam.org/t/draft-howto-convert-audio-file-formats/17462/17 (and the responses that follow.

There’s also a more complex script that can work recursively through folders and create an output that mirrors the folder structure Batch Scripts with other programs - #6 by steve
