I know I'm late to this discussion, and there have been some good
suggestions, so I'll just add this comment. I'd go with octave's
(https://octave.org/) DSP tools and read the audio file into an octave
matrix; it can read wav and aiff files natively (and possibly mp3, but
I haven't used that.) You can then access any particular audio sample
or group of samples, and use octave's version of the C functions
printf or fprintf to write the selected samples to a csv (or any
other) file, in whatever format (int, float, etc) is suitable.
