adding multiple metadata to an audio programme

[DaveHmedia]

Hi all,

I am trying to find out how to add music track information using the latest audition, on a pre rec radio show (wav or mp3 or ses file) which may contain a number of different pieces of music. This can then be read by a broadcast data reader (in a linear fashion) and displayed as part of the stream, and automaticaly be included in the data reporting software, (i.e centovocast) as required by ppl. any help would be really appreciated. Thanks Dave .

All the metadata Audition can deal with shows up in the Metadata window (Window>Metadata). One thing to note though is that it won't necessarily all be displayed by default. The way to make sure that you can see everything is to hover the mouse over the word 'Metadata' at the top and right-click on it. You get the normal moving options available, but at the bottom of the list it says 'Metadata Display'. Here you can determine exactly what it is that's displayed, so you can choose as little or as much as you want. If a field is editable, then this is where you do it.

As far as multiple metadata goes, you can't do it. Metadata applies to a single file as far as Audition is concerned. I'm not aware of any ability of any software to create multiple metadata entries for a single file; that rather goes against the fundamental concept of it.

Steve, thanks for the quick response.  I was affraid that was the case.  I am producing a radio show and have been doing it as a multitrack session and providing it to the station as a single wav file.  i was hoping to be able to show artist info for the individual songs.  

not being able to do that, i'm trying to embed ID3 info for the session, i see title, artists, etc.  but the album art is grayed out.  any ideas?   

thanks again,

mike

nevermind.  ID3 art only works on MP3.  😞
