HoboKa Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 How do you edit WAV tags in windows 7? I'm using FL Studio 7 and I put in my data - it won't even save the year and artist name and I can't seem to be able to edit the album name etc. Is there a program or some kind of workaround I could do?

timaeus222 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) Why the WAV? Why not encode it into MP3 (VBR1 for OCR, perhaps) and tag it with Mp3tag? You could also just name it a certain way: Artist - Song Name Remixer - Remix name [source] or something like that.

What's the issue here? Are you unsure how Bandcamp will end up tagging and encoding your files for you? Because its scripting will make that happen, based on what you enter in the Artist field, Album title field, etc. I believe the audio file description ("Comments" in the OCR submission form) becomes something like "Visit http://artistpagename.bandcamp.com/". If you want to provide background for each track, you could always do so in a separate .txt file and provide it with the album. You can edit FLAC tags with FLAC Frontend, if you want. You could tag AIFF (or WAV) with http://kid3.sourceforge.net/, but again, if you're using Bandcamp, they'll take your WAV and convert it into multiple file types with proper tagging for you according to your specifications (you don't have to chat with them; it's the script that does it for you). https://bandcamp.com/help/uploading#aiffwavuploadrequirement Edited February 27, 2015 by timaeus222 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
