I use a really useful tool called r128gain which performs loudness normalisation on audio files.
Under 17.10, however, I get the following error however...
Failed opening "/home/Downloads/r128gain-1.0.11-linux64-gtk3/r128gain-tools/libsox.so.2".
Error loading SoX.
Can anybody shed any light on this for me, I would love to get it working again?
Thank you!

It seems the tool is missing the soxinstallation
sudo apt-get install sox
should fix it
Edit: Installing alone did not fix it, you have to tell r128gain where to look for the sox library
mv /home/username/r128gain-1.0.11-linux64-gtk3/r128gain-tools/libsox.so.2 /home/username/r128gain-1.0.11-linux64-gtk3/r128gain-tools/libsox.so.2_backup
ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsox.so.2 /home/username/r128gain-1.0.11-linux64-gtk3/r128gain-tools/libsox.so.2
Then it works
./r128gain /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wavSoX sucessfully loaded.
FFmpeg sucessfully loaded.
analyzing ...
[1/1] "Noise.wav": -29.7 LUFS (6.7 LU)
peak: -17.9 TPFS, range: 0.0 LU
[ALBUM]: -29.7 LUFS (6.7 LU)
peak: -17.9 TPFS, range: 0.0 LU
done.

SoX executable in r128gain-1.0.11-linux64-gtk3/r128gain-tools depends on libpng12 (not exist in modern Ubuntu), so we need to install it manually:
wget http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libp/libpng/libpng12-0_1.2.49-1+deb7u2_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i libpng12-0_1.2.49-1+deb7u2_amd64.deb
After this it works:
artful@artful:~/Downloads/r128gain-1.0.11-linux64-gtk3$ ./r128gain /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav SoX sucessfully loaded.
FFmpeg sucessfully loaded.
analyzing ...
[1/1] "Noise.wav": -29.7 LUFS (6.7 LU)
peak: -17.9 TPFS, range: 0.0 LU
[ALBUM]: -29.7 LUFS (6.7 LU)
peak: -17.9 TPFS, range: 0.0 LU
done.

you don't need to install debian packages, ubuntu already brings sox and a working sox library

We do not know build flags of libsox built by r128gain. So I leave my answer here. Copying parts of my answer is not good manner.
