	Wave Files - The Sonic Spot
		Wave files may contain strings of text for specifying cue point labels, notes, etc. Strings are stored in a format where the first byte specifies the number of following ASCII text bytes in the string.
		Wave files use the standard RIFF structure which groups the files contents (sample format, digital audio samples, etc.) into separate chunks, each containing it's own header and data bytes.
		Wave files usually contain only one data chunk, but they may contain more than one if they are contained within a Wave List Chunk ("wavl").

	WAVE File Format
		WAVE File Format is a file format for storing digital audio (waveform) data.
		A WAVE file is a collection of a number of different types of chunks.
		The WAVE format is sort of a bastardized standard that was concocted by too many "cooks" who didn't properly coordinate the addition of "ingredients" to the "soup".

	Microsoft WAVE soundfile format
		The WAVE file format is a subset of Microsoft's RIFF specification for the storage of multimedia files.
		A WAVE file is often just a RIFF file with a single "WAVE" chunk which consists of two sub-chunks -- a "fmt " chunk specifying the data format and a "data" chunk containing the actual sample data.
		Although WAV files have been implemented, these files are very simple, and their developers typically use an older specification in constructing them.

	Audio Formats - wave, mp3, midi
		Wave and MP3 files are the two kinds of files generally involved in creating custom CDs.
		Since a wave file is uncompressed data - as close a copy to the original analog data as possible - it is therefore much larger than the same file would be in a compressed format such as mp3 or RealAudio.
		As an example of the huge size different between a wave file and an MP3, a three minute song will take up 30 Mb as a wave file, but only between 2 and 7 Mb as an MP3 (depending on the bitrate you choose).

	GameDev.net - Loading a Wave File
		I suggest you also get my Wave File Format description on my website and look at it first and use it in conjunction with this.
		A Wave file, like many graphic and sound files, has a header file at the beginning that describes the sound data contained in the file.
		The first 4 bytes in a wave file header in determining if the file we opened is really a wave file.

	Wave File Specifications
		The WAVE file format use RIFF chunks, each chunk consisting of a chunk identifier, chunk length and chunk data.
		Wave files have a master RIFF chunk which includes a WAVE identifier followed by sub-chunks.
		WAVE files often have information chunks that precede or follow the sound data (Data chunk).

	WAVE audio file format (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		WAVE audio files are one of the common formats used to store and play audio data.
		A WAVE file consists of a number of "chunks", each of these chunks includes an identifier, the size of the chunk in bytes, and any data associated with the chunk.
		After this the file contains chunks, while there are a number of potential chunks only the minimum are considered below, a format and data chunk.

	Wave File Analysis
		While saving the audio stream in a wave file, the progress button will tell you how many kBytes are already written to the file.
		If you choose "Analyze and Play Wave file" the audio data will be read from the wave file and "echoed" in real time to the soundcard's output (if not occupied).
		For ELF work, the wave files are often decimated to a low sample rate to save disk space.

	Vinyl to CD Wave Corrector FAQ's
		The file is generated when you install Wave Corrector or update to a later version.
		This is because the replacement waveform that Wave Corrector generates (the ‘correction’) is calculated to accurately match the surrounding wave.
		Wave Corrector, in common with most similar software, uses a statistical method which looks for sudden changes in the statistics describing the wave.

	WAVE File Format
		It was originally intended for multimedia files, but the spec is open enough to allow pretty much anything to be placed in such a file, and ignored by programs that read the format correctly.
		WAVE can also contain any other chunk type allowed by RIFF, including LIST chunks, which are used to contain optional kinds of data such as the copyright date, author's name, etc. Chunks can appear in any order.
		The simplest way to write data into WAVE files produced by your own programs is to use the canonical format.

	From Wave File (DSP Blockset)
		The File name parameter can specify an absolute or relative path to the file.
		The output from the block, y, is a length-M frame of audio data from a mono signal, or an M-by-2 matrix containing one frame of audio data from each channel of a stereo signal.
		The block icon shows the name, sample rate (in Hz), number of channels (1 or 2), and sample width (in bits) of the data in the specified audio file.

	From Wave File (DSP Blockset)
		If the audio file contains two channels (stereo), the block's output is an M-by-2 matrix containing one frame (M consecutive samples) of audio data from each of the two channels.
		If the audio file contains a single channel (mono), the block's output is an M-by-1 matrix containing one frame (M consecutive samples) of mono audio data.
		To reduce the required number of file accesses, the block acquires L consecutive samples from the file during each access, where L is specified by the Minimum number of samples for each read from file parameter (L

	How to Join Multiple Wave Files into One Wave File
		Wave file playback using SpeakWave and SpeakInteractiveWave variables will result in small delays between the playback of individual files.
		This delay can be avoided by combining multiple wave files into a single file, and then playing back only the single wave file.
		The object has a Splice method which accepts the name of the output file followed by the names of the 10 wave files to combine as the parameters.

	Audio File Formats - The Sonic Spot
		Most of an audio file's content is used to describe the individual audio samples that are played sequentially to reconstruct the waveform.
		Microsoft's Wave file format is the most commonly supported audio file format on the Windows platform.
		The most common type of wave file contains uncompressed (raw PCM) waveform data because it is the most widely supported among audio applications due the simplicity of decoding uncompressed data.

	XO Wave: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
		XO Wave Pro also adds support for Audio Unit plug-ins, full-speed CD burning (burn speed is limited in XO Wave Free) and the option of using double precision for all internal calculations.
		This has two advantages over creating files for each fade, as some workstation do: a) Maximum internal precision can be maintained, and b) You never have to wait for fades to be rendered.
		One disadvantage of this technique is that certain operations, such as removing a file from the session, may cause alternate session files to become unusable.

	How to Troubleshoot Wave Sound File Problems in Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Millennium Edition (Me)
		If you cannot play.wav files in Windows, or if.wav files are not played at the proper volume, you may not have a playback device selected, or the playback device that you have selected may not be configured properly.
		If you cannot play.wav files in Windows, or if.wav files are not played properly, your sound card may not be compatible with the type of.wav file that you are attempting to play, or there may be a resource conflict between your sound card and another device that is installed in your computer.
		If you cannot play other.wav files that are compressed by using the same type of compression, try to play.wav files that are compressed by using a different type of compression.
