@ezyang I believe this repo is not Windows-ready because it relies on sox that cannot be built statically.

Yeah, I think I agree

Maybe use socket of WSL in order to get sox info ?? Seems feasible.

This is not a good idea. First, it requires users to install WSL. It's a win 10 only feature. Second, if there's WSL, why don't we just run code in WSL? Nevertheless, it may be helpful if you want to use native libraries with torchaudio. But apparently, this is not something we should do here.

Because it still has no CUDA support.

@black-snow They actually announced that several days ago. But the discussion here is rather old. We have torchaudio nightly packages for Windows now. As for torchaudio with sox, you can see #648.

Thanks for the reply. Yes they did but only for WSL2 and for that you still have to be on insider/fast-ring (although the may update should be out soon).

How do I get the nightly? For now, I only need torchaudio.datasets (which uses torchaudio.load but I don't know if that requires sox already).
