for infile in *.wav
do
	outfile=`echo $infile|cut -f1 -d"."'-11025.wav
	echo "Resampling \"$infile\" to \"$outfile\""
	sox $infile -r 11025 $outfile resample   [or whatever it is]
done

Will not be happy file filenames with .'s (except to mark the
extention) - I could fix these limitations, (with perl, to be the
fastest, but I hate perl :) ) but I'm a fat lazy pig, and I like shell.
