Metadata Dialog

This dialog allows you to define the metadata to be embedded in your audio file.

To open the Metadata dialog, open the Metadata window and click Edit.

Depending on the file type, the metadata is handled differently.

When opening the Metadata dialog for files in the Audio Editor, you can edit the metadata that is saved in the audio file. This metadata is saved to disk later.

When opening the Metadata dialog for files in the Audio Montage window or the Batch Processor window, you can edit the metadata for the WAV, MP3, MP4, and M4A audio files that are created when rendering the audio montage or processing through the batch processor. If you render to WAV, MP3, MP4, or M4A formats, the metadata will be associated to these files.

Note

The metadata codes that are followed by an “(i)” indicate the iTunes-compatible fields. Lyrics and pictures are also iTunes-compatible.
