Tag copying

[schmitty]

Hi Spoon,

I use Platinum Notes and MixedInKey to analyze and fix my audio files, however, they do not support read or writing of ID tags in WAV files. So when I convert m4a that I download from iTunes and convert to WAV, I lose the tags, is it possible to either add a DSP or add a function to an existing DSP to allow for copying tags between files?

Re: Tag copying

dBpoweramp will preserve IDTags when going to and from wave.

Yes, I know that. But what happens is when I download music from iTunes, I convert it to WAV with dBpoweramp which is fine, but then I have to post-process the file in Platinum Notes to clean it up, then run it through MixedInKey to retrieve the Key and Tempo. Seeing as they don't support reading or writing of ID tags in WAV files, (and the developer has no intention of supporting it in the near future despite many people requesting it) the output file(s) do not contain the ID3 information. So, I'd like to be able to copy the tags from the M4A to the WAV file.

Sorry that is not possible with dBpoweramp.

Re: Tag copying

Yes, I know. That's why I was asking if it's possible to create a DSP to do it, or add that functionality to an existing DSP.

I know of an external contractor who would be able to quote to add this.
