Such metadata is mostly stored in ID3 format.

One of the major drawbacks of ID3-TagIT is that further development of this software has been terminated, and therefore the latest versions of the program are not available.
Media Monkey APPEARS to edit ID3 tags in WAVs, and it consistently displays them, but Slimserver only occasionally reads them, even after a full library scan. Has anyone found ANY other tag editor that truly works on WAV files (16 and 24 bit) which has more features? It would be nice to have the features of Media Monkey. Scroll down to "Professional MP3/Wav" editor and download. The site is in Spanish, but don't be afraid, the editor is in (mostly) English, and it works. So I've restricted my search to the PC.Ī program from Samu Software (unlikely name) Professional MP3/WAV TAG Editor :
There are none I've found so far for the Mac that work with WAVs, only MP3s. Converting to a lossless format is unnecessary and time consuming in my business, so I sought out to see if the original 24 bit WAVs could be tagged.Īfter googling and testing about 25-30 tag editors out of a gazillion, so far I've only found ONE that will read and write ID3 tags that Slimserver/Transporter will read and use. AIFFs do not support ID tags to the best of my knowledge, so it has to be WAV. I am a professional audio mastering engineer and I use the Transporter to play back and demonstrate uncompressed 24 bit/96 kHz, 48, and 44.1 K files in the mastering studio, without having to access the computer, it's a great tool. Contrary to another post in this forum, which is untrue. And that yes, WAV files do support these tags. After a long search and struggle I have been able to prove that Slimserver DOES read the ID3v1 tags from Wav files and find a tag editor that works with them.
