  • Patent number: 8793005
    Abstract: Methods of representing, recreating, and editing an audio composition involving: receiving at a digital audio workstation audio data that has been processed by an audio processing device; receiving at the digital audio workstation a set of metadata specifying a value for each of a plurality of settings of the audio processing device that define the state of the corresponding setting of the audio processing device when raw audio data received by the audio processing device was processed to generate the processed audio data; and storing the received processed audio data and the received set of metadata in an audio file, wherein the processed audio data is designated as audio information and the metadata is designated as settings data. The settings may be stored in a WAV or AIFF audio file, and may be retrieved, parsed, and applied to restore the audio processing device to the state corresponding to the retrieved audio.
