pkg install -forge audio
The latest released version of the toolkit will be downloaded and installed.
With the Audio toolkit package already downloaded, and in the current directory when running GNU Octave, the package can be installed using the following command within GNU Octave:
pkg install audio-2.0.5.tar.gz
Regardless of the method of installing the Audio toolkit, in order to use its functions, the toolkit must be loaded using the pkg load command:
