Greetings!
I have a Windows .wav file representing an acoustical signal that I would like to analyze in SAS. How would I go about opening the .wav file?
Many thanks!

Garnett,

Fascinating question .. never thought about it and totally out of my area.

That said, I came across an interesting thread elsewhere that might provide some direction. You can find it at:

Hi Art,
Thanks for your interest. I read somewhere that .wav are binary file formats, so that I run

data test;
infile "c:\...\sample_sfoae.wav" lrecl = 2000;
input _x pib5. ;
run;

proc print output:

_x
121438095698
834918219026

I wonder what that means?

You would need a detailed description of the file format to make sense of the data.
Maybe this helps:

(I just Googled 'wav file format' to find this).
