I followed an online tutorial in how to create and render a montage with metadata. The montage has 15 tracks and is 1 hour 30 mins long. I entered all the correct data into the cd text. There is no option for me to select CD TEXT in the Montage render panel. There is only the option to select Titles under ALL MARKED REGIONS , thus the ISRC codes do not get picked up. Wavelab 12 Pro on a Macbbok M1. Please help / advise, Thank you
Thank you for your reply. That’s not the issue, I have entered all the cd text correctly. It is not giving me the option to select it in the Montage render panel. There is only the option to select Titles.
The CD-Text has to be set in the metadata window, using variables, not in the Render settings.
Yes I know, I did that but in the tutorial I watched “CD Text” was selected under all marked regions in the render tab, I’m guessing they’ve changed that to just “Titles” now as it was an earlier version of Wavelab in the tutorial. When I did a google search it said the option to select “CD Text” was still available for Wavelab pro 12. Will read through the manual. The problem was when I checked the rendered wav in the app Meta, the ISRC info was not there. However I just checked the same file in Audacity and the ISRC metadata is there. No worries. thankyou for your reply.
What do you see in the Metadata Tab if you check one of the files in the WaveLab Audio Editor?
If one app is showing the ISRC and another is not, it’s possible that the ISRC is not in both the ID3v2 and AXML sections of the metadata.
Does the Meta app show any other metadata? I know it doesn’t show the ISRC but knowing what it does show could help us help you.
Sorry for the late reply but I was away. Nothing was entered in the AXML tab. I will replay that part of your tutorial again and read up on text snippets. Many thanks.
Hmm. The metadata preset I made is designed to populate both the ID3v2 and AXML chunks with the ISRC so if you’re not doing that, most likely that is the cause for some apps showing the ISRC and some not because some apps use one method, and some use the other.
An official standard was never fully adopted in my opinion.
