Audacity Forum

I have the Audacity source because I wanted to take a swing at building for Windows with the Steinberg ASIO SDK for 24-bit recording. If I updated taglib to write the additional fields, would you accept a user submission?

Audacity is currently writing the following chunks to the INFO section of a WAV file it exports: IART: Artist Name INAM: Track Name ICRD: Year See attachment for "Start Me Up." [attachment=1]Start Me Up (Aud).txt[/attachment] Windows Media Player (WMP) writes the following chuncks to the INFO sectio...

Using Audacity 1.3.14-Beta on Windows 7. I complete the following metadata tags for indivdiual track export as WAV: Artist, Track Title, Album Title, Track #, Genre, Year. But the only tags that seem to be written to the WAV file header are Artist, Track Title, and Year. Is this a bug, or are there ...

There are two short bursts, then the sustained occurrence. If I can do so and not run afoul of attachment limits, I'll upload the full section for mo...

Pressing fault? I'm guessing my father-in-law bought it c. 1956. And, based on gnarly scratches in a couple other tracks, the album led something of a hard life. :-)

I'm digitizing some of my father-in-law's old jazz LPs from the 50s. They clean up pretty well in most cases. On the current title. I've had to truncate a couple tracks where damage was too severe to correct. It's a shame, because it's a really good album (Anita O' Day, "This Is Anita"). Now I'm try...

Or as FLAC (with dither turned off) if you want to some disk space. The quality of FLAC is the same as WAV, just smaller files. Disk space is essentially free, but there is the annoying migration problem when you find that a 1TB drive wasn't enough, then a 2TB drive wasn't enough, etc. But I still ...
