Issue with header info of recorded wav file using Audacity.

Post by santo123 » Mon Dec 01, 2008 4:17 am

Hi all,

Using a Audacity I have recorded one wav track, but when I read the header of the same track using other program I found the data id as NULL and following chunk size as garbage.
The same program I used for clicktrack generated using Audacity, it gave me proper results.

The program I am using is working fine with other wav files, but I found issues with the recorded tracks using Audacity.

Please help me!
Thanks for you time and help!

Santo.

Audacity does not record WAV tracks. Audacity records Audacity Projects.
To get a WAV file you must Export from Audacity.

Hi,

Sorry it was my mistake..
Yes I exported the Audacity project to get the WAV output.

Thanks for your reply!
