Jacob,
You are ... Not quite going about this in the correct way.
You should install Distribute, available from
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/distribute
This will provide the setuptools package, which is used to install
most
modern Python packages.
Once this is done, navigate to the folder and run:
python setup.py install
which will actually install the library into your site-packages
directory
and add it to the global package registry.
As for documentation, I must admit that sound_libs is limited, but
here's
the general idea:
Bass, the underlying library provides functions such as
BASS_ChannelPlay, which takes as an argument the handle of a
channel to
play.
The library models a pseudo-OO structure, with output streams and
recordings inheriting the methods of channels, so I followed this
in my
wrapper. So once you instantiate, for instance, a
sound_lib.stream.FileStream object, you can then call play on this
object
and it will call BASS_ChannelPlay with the channel's handle, which the
object stores upon instantiation.
Furthermore, Bass has many getters and setters which I have
replaced with
Python properties--so instead of calling
BASS_ChannelSetAttribute(<channel_handle>, BASS_AttribPan, -1.0)
you can just go:
channel.pan = -1
I hope this is enough to get you started, and if you have any more
questions feel free to contact me off-list.

Ok, think figured it out since see that there's a main.py file in
actual
sound_lib subdirectory, so can copy that folder/directory over
wherever
and then reference it and the objects/modules under there from within
python interpreter, using import statement, and see there's also a
.chm
help file there, so let me play around a bit.
Stay well

Ok, if I want to try implement use of your soundlib library, how
do I
get it to execute the setup.py code since when I tried it under
python
2.7, I first had to change the first line to in fact import setup
from
distutils.core - as opposed to setuptools, but distutils.core
doesn't
seem to have any find_packages inside/underneath it?
Do I need to run this under a different version of python, or do
I not
really need to run setup.py to actually make use of this under
python
itsself, and in that case, which modules should I initially try
importing then, and/or where should I copy the contents of the
.gz file
I downloaded to under python27's installation directory?
Sorry, but am still relatively new to python itsself, and hence am
rather asking these questions.
Stay well

If you want to perform this programmatically, use my sound_lib
package
http://hg.qwitter-client.net/sound_lib
And set the .pan property of the sound from -1 to 1 with 0 being
the
middle.
If you're looking to just modify sounds, grab Audacity (the 1.3
beta,
open the sound, and use I believe shift+p on the track, or effects,
pan... It likewise ranges from -1 to 1.
