this line works too on my side. Do you see the "rate" effect? (sox -h |
grep EFFECTS: | grep rate ?) Maybe this is an additional effect which is
only available if you link against libsamplerate
(http://www.mega-nerd.com/SRC/)

I'm rather sure it is. While testing i redirected stdout of the sox
process to a new sample.flac and checked this version with foobar + it
was exactly 50% the size of the full version. (If i remember
correctly)

agreed, just wanted to make clear it's something else than "320kbit/s"

kind regards,
