Question

how can i get the amplitude list from the audio file using linux command line tool?

Answer 1

Do you want to get all the individual samples as text? SoX can do this.

$ sox file.wav file.dat

take an audio file file.wavand generate a text file file.datwith a column for the time base in seconds and a column for each audio channel, scaled to the maximum possible value.
