What is metadata?

What are the best programs for editing and managing metadata bwf and mp3 files?

  • There is no definitive standard patterns and each application shows part of the information and each in its own way. On the other hand there are metadata editors that let you edit metadata but this information is not associated with the audio file if not a separate file the program generates. Seeking a profesional solution.

  • Answer:

    Professional audio editing software enables you to edit metadata embedded in audio files as well as those files' audio content itself, but it can be pricey. Three lightweight (in the good sense) tools that focus on editing embedded metadata are Wave Agent and BWFMetaEdit for bwf, and ID3 Editor for mp3. All are cross-platform on Mac and Windows. Wave Agent, from Sound Devices, and BWFMetaEdit, from the Federal Agencies Digitization Guidelines Initiative, are free. ID3 Editor, from Pa-software, is inexpensive.

Tag&Rename and Mp3tag are the best for tagging MP3 files IMO. The second is a freeware. For BWF files, you have Wave Agent, BWF MetaEdit, BWF-Widget Pro, and MetadataTouch. Can't say which is best.
