is it possible to change the beep sound , using Linux shell script command

Question

I am using this command to beep

tput bel 
echo -e "\a"

I need to change the beep tone with some tone using some other command.

In what environment? Text console or X11? What do you know about available sound hardware? What makes you think that the user hasn't set up a visual bell? — Gilles 'SO- stop being evil', Sep 19 '16 at 23:22

It's not bash related question, it depends on what terminal emulator you use. For example with urxvt: URxvt.bell-command: play /my/beep.wav

If you want to compose speaker music, use the beep command.
