Re: wavwrite

[Robert A. Macy]

My wavwrite is EXACTLY like Matlab.

>> wavwrite(signal,sf,bits,"filename.wav");

PLUS, I routinely have been using it to write 24 bit wav
files and routinely using wavread to read 24 bit files,
again, in the same order:
>> [signal, sf, bits]=wavread("filename.wav");

What's the problem?
