#11 [Bug Report] LoopAuditioneer writes rarely used chunks in WAV file
LoopAuditioneer writes from time to time (not always!) chunks into the WAV file, which are probably not required for use in organ sampler software. I am talking about the "fact", "list", and "peak" chunks. The "peak" chunk even does not seem to be part of the WAV file format definition: https://sites.google.com/site/musicgapi/technical-documents/wav-file-format#list
The file 036-C.wav is the original file, which contains already some pitch information. After writing FFT pitch information into this file with LoopAuditioneer (036-C-LA.wav), the three aforementioned chunks appear. I have tools, which do not like these additional chunks an drop error messages.
Is this a bug or are these chunks used by any sampler software?
All file I/O operations of LoopAuditioneer happen via libsndfile. Of the mentioned chunks the only one that LA sometimes intentionally writes is the LIST INFO. How the other chunks get there I don't know...
