16 bit PCM to wav conversion

[michael rouch]

i am trying to convert a raw, uncompressed 16 bit PCM cut sampled at
8000 samples/sec converted to a wav file. i was under the impression
that all that was needed was to concat the cut onto a 44 byte wav file
header with the correct parameters set, but when i put in all the
parameters all i get is noise.

when i set the samples/sec to 16000 and # bits to 8 in the wav header i
get an ok cut, but there is a ton of noise compared with the original.
(i used the same header sox gives in the conversion). am i missing some
magical incantation?

any help would be appreciated.

There is sample code to create a sound file on the fly.
