The obspy.wav package contains methods in order to read and write seismogram files in the WAV(audio) format. The data are squeezed to audible frequencies. ObsPy is an open-source project dedicated to provide a Python framework for processing seismological data. It provides parsers for common file formats and seismological signal processing routines which allow the manipulation of seismological time series (see Beyreuther et. al. 2010). The goal of the ObsPy project is to facilitate rapid application development for seismology. WWW: http://www.obspy.org/
