Can anyone help me install nussl please? Issue with soxbindings requirement..

[rt60ltd]

Hi, I'm trying to install nussl on Mac with no success. The page just says run 'pip install nussl' but doesn't give any troubleshooting advice if that doesn't complete... I'm running Python 3.10 and have other packages including scipy, soundfile, ffmpeg, sox and librosa working fine in projects.

The error seems to be associated with soxbindings, with the following messages:

python setup.py bdist_wheel did not run successfully
Failed building wheel for soxbindings
Running setup.py install for soxbindings did not run successfully

I've searched and searched for clues on how to fix, but with no success. Any help on how to troubleshoot and resolve this would be very much appreciated.

This might be more relevant to the soxbindings repo, but: do you have sox installed on your machine?

Relavent Soxbindings Issue

pseeth/soxbindings#10

[gkostin1966]

Was able to get nussl to install by creating symbolic links for sox.h and libsox.a

ln -s /opt/homebrew/include/sox.h /usr/local/include/sox.h
ln -s /opt/homebrew/lib/libsox.a /usr/local/lib/libsox.a

Development Environment Highlights

Apple M1 Pro chip running Ventura 13.0.1
Homebrew brew install python sox libsoxr
PyCharm 2022.3 (Community Edition) IDE

Hope it helps.

I used the method provided by gkostin1966 to install the nussl and it succeeded, but when I try to import nussl, it doesn't work.
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'nussl'
