Metadata - BORING!
But wait! It's useful and important if you use samples/foley sounds/sound effects in your project. If you make and sell sounds it's essential to include metadata in the files or you'll really annoy professional sound editors and designers.
In this video we're looking at a few ways to view and write metadata in REAPER, Finder, BWF MetaEdit, and Soundly.
Summary:
- Metadata describes a sound file to aid in keyword searching. Who made the file, category/genre, title of file if different from filename, descriptions,
- use descriptive words, Not just "door" instead "Heavy, squeaky, creak, wooden, door"
- Finder/Explorer: Limited metadata viewing
- REAPER: Reads all BWF Metadata, can't write, has internal database tags
- BWF MetaEdit: Full read and write of metadata, scary interface
- Soundly: Basic Read and Write, nice interface, thesaurus in search
