The module provides low-level audio processing functions for manipulating raw audio samples\u2014operations like mixing, format conversion, and signal analysis that were previously available in the standard library. Since the module was removed, projects that depend on it need an external package to continue functioning.\n\nThe package is designed as a drop-in replacement: you import it the same way and call the same functions. It has no runtime dependencies and is distributed as pre-compiled wheels for most major platforms and architectures. The main constraint is the hard requirement for supported versions\u2014it will not install or run on earlier versions, so you should use environment markers in your dependency declaration to avoid installation attempts on unsupported versions.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need `audioop` functions on supported versions. It is a straightforward, permissively licensed restoration of a removed standard library module with no dependencies. However, the aging maintenance status (374 days since last release) means you should monitor it for compatibility issues. Use environment markers to avoid installation on unsupported versions."},"id":"audioop-lts","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/audioop-lts","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/audioop-lts.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/audioop-lts/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-08-05","license_spdx":"PSF-2.0","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"audioop-lts","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"LTS Port of Python audioop"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":9319723,"position":1545,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.2.2"}
