| | WAVE File Format |
 | | 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. |
 | | For this reason, and also possibly because a simpler (or inaccurate?) description of the WAVE format was promulgated before the Win32 API was released, a lot of older programs read and write a subset of the WAVE format, which I refer to as the "canonical" WAVE format. |
 | | The simplest way to write data into WAVE files produced by your own programs is to use the canonical format. |
