Editing Metadata in Other Programs
Since Sound Devices recorders write metadata to WAV
fi
les using the Broadcast
Wave File standard, many professional applications can read and edit this meta-
data. Sometimes, it is useful to edit metadata in bulk after recording and before
sending the
fi
les to post-production.
