Hi all,
I'm working on fixing this issue:
https://github.com/erikd/libsndfile/issues/190
in libsndfile. In order to figure out what's what, I need a WAV file
loop, with an embeded ACID chunks, and the loop needs to be in a time
signature *other* than 4/4.
If you think you may have a loop that would be useful for me, you can
verify it using the sndfile-info program that ships with libsndfile
(its in the sndfile-programs package in Debian/Ubuntu). Running
on candidate WAV files produces something like this:
$ sndfile-info file.wav
========================================
File : file.wav

???? : 0.000000
Beats : 4
Meter : 4/4

End
What I need is a file with "Meter" of something other than 4/4.
If you have one, please email the sndfile-info output to me at erikd
at
mega-nerd.com. I might also get you to email me the file if it looks
like it might help.
Cheers,
Erik
