Our tag suggestions should be coming in:Įach folder is listed, with suggestions for the tags that will be added to the WAV files within. We have not configured bliss to fix cover art, or any other aspect of metadata. In the Music location field, enter the folder to your untagged WAV files, then click Apply rules.Īt this point, bliss will begin scanning the WAV files to see if it can find tag suggestions for the files. Click Albums then settings (if this is the first time you've run bliss, settings will be shown already):

Install and start bliss if you haven't done already. Here's the bunch of untagged WAV files we'll start with (using Kid3):

Using bliss to add tags to untagged WAV files Let's walkthrough how to use bliss to tag some old untagged WAVs. This will make your library easier to search and browse, and with the addition of embedded cover art, potentially even more beautiful! So if you've a library of old, untagged WAV files, now is the time to get them tagged. These recent developments have seen more and more music players and taggers begin to support WAV tagging. ID3 to the rescue! A new technique, where ID3 tags are buried inside sections of WAV files (called 'chunks') has been gathering steam. Without good tags, libraries become more difficult to navigate, search and generally enjoy. This makes music library management with WAVs much more difficult. However, these were encoded in a tagging format that most music players are not able to read. Nine basic tags covering the basics of each track were originally defined artist, track title, album name et al. But traditionally they've always had a big pitfall: their metadata support has been traditionally poor. This makes them popular with audiophiles, sound engineers, and anyone that requires the highest audio quality ( other lossless codecs are available). In fact, this is by far the most common data stored inside WAVs, so WAVs have become synonymous with uncompressed, lossless audio. WAV files are a file format for storing audio the most common audio type stored is uncompressed PCM audio. A common early one to consider is filling in missing tags in WAV files that were previously untagged. WAV tagging for old untagged WAVsįollowing the launch of WAV tagging within bliss, it's worth considering some of the scenarios the new feature will be useful for. The basic structure of the user interface is similar though, so I'm keeping these old pages around in case they still contain useful information. This post may contain old screenshots of bliss which has been replaced by a new design.
