- WAVESCANNER: THE DECODER FOR YOUR AUDIOFILES TOWARDS WAV.
- WAVESCANNER: THE AUDIO QUALITY ANALYSER FOR YOUR AUDIOFILES.
- KEEP AN EYE ON THE QUALITY OF YOUR DIGITALLY BORN FILES.
WaveScanner
UniPort WaveScanner analyzes and scans a variety of audio files for quality, decodes them to a WAV file, reads out metadata from the resulting header file, and creates corresponding MD5 checksums. The output results become parameters and result files for the workflow.
WAVESCANNER PERFORMS QC AUDIO ANALYSIS
The analysed data gives an immediate hint towards problematic transfer zones, such as loss of bandwidth due to smeared heads, correlation swap due to mis-phased replayers and/or tapes, as well as direct indication of anomalities of noisefloor raise. An especially viable azimuth analysis helps to evaluate correct transfers from i.e. third party service providers. This quality-related information – collected at the moment of WaveScanner analysis – is then stored in the jobDB™ or mediARC™ workflow system, allowing for a centralized quality assessment. NOA Audio’s WaveScanner algorithmic analysis tool may be used as part of an offline process in the archiving workflow or to perform QC on files being handled by our ingestLINE
products. In some cases, not all ingestLINE products will require a full audio scanning QC approval stamp, since the transfer parameters are sufficient to indicate a correct transfer of the initial ingest (such as tape splice detection in NOARecord, BLER detection in MediaLector, or E32 detection in CDLector).
WAVESCANNER READS OUT METADATA AND PROVIDES MD5 CHECKS
Typically BWF- related metadata can be parsed out from the headerfile; additional header files may be available on request (such as i.e. Sequoia files). WaveScanner provides also an MD5 scan and reports the calculated MD5 back to the workflow.
