hi rene,
yeah i know, but it’s not always working correctly. i needed to convert samplerates from 96 to 48 and it kept spitting out 44.1
very annoying and i couldn’t find the reason.

izotope RX2 does batch conversion and does preserve both bwav and soundminer metadata through the process.

What pushed me away from Sample Manager was that it was too cumbersome and lacked automation when comparing to Peak’s batch manager or AWS Audio Tools which has a watch folder. Regardless Sample Manager is a great value for a lot of people. Really hope Bias makes a return

Arnoud: it should, if you had it work destructively on the files. But I haven’t tested this, since I’ve not found any decent tools to write and se metadata with for my purposes.

Sounds good, but does it preserve metadata in the batch conversion process? I have a hard time finding a batch converter that does…
