Got an editing question? Sample rate question? Want to know how you can save Standard RIFF/Radio Industry tag information in a file? How about if your station is preserving some of it's old back-catalog stuff... Feel free to post it here. We're watching and listening! ---Syntrillium Support _________________

Unfortunately, I have been out of radio itself for so long(almost 10 years) that I don't even know what RIFF is! Any handy tips from those now in the biz would be appreciated. Teddy G.

The RIFF info (and the Standard Radio tags) allow the engineer to insert information about the soundfile, primarily info related to Artist, Genre, Copyright, the Engineer, Digitization Sequence, Outcues, Intro Time, etc. This info can then be called up from various broadcast software, so that when you are playing a .wav file, you can see all the pertinent info about that song and it's creation, etc. Different radio applications/systems use these files for cataloging, as many stations are moving towards the MP3/WAV broadcast formats, and simply transferring and coding a lot of their back-catalog material. ---Syntrillium Support _________________
