148 Audio Montages

is imported into WaveLab, the markers it contains will be interpreted as WaveLab markers

upon import.

For the various CD track markers, the codes to use are as follows:

Marker type Code Example marker name

CD track start [t-start] So it begins [t-start]

CD track end [t-end] The end [t-end] of the

road

CD track splice t-splice] Intermission [t-splice]

CD track index [t-index] [t-index] Hello

You must use Nuendo 2.0 or later if you want to create specially named markers that

will be interpreted as WaveLab markers.

In Nuendo, a marker track has to be created for the specially named markers.

When importing AES-31 projects containing specially named markers, the marker

codes (e.g. [t-end]) will not be displayed in WaveLab.

For more information on AES-31 ﬁles see AES31.

XML Export/Import of Audio Montages

This is available on the Save special (Montage) submenu, and is solely intended for users

familiar with XML. XML stands for "E Xtensible Markup Language" and is a markup language

much like HTML.

This feature can be useful for example, if you wish to change many ﬁle names used by the

Audio Montage (export then import). It could also be used to generate Audio Montages

from scratch (or from a template), or to convert another DAW ﬁle format to WaveLab's Audio

Montage. Another application could be to compare two Audio Montages using a text ﬁle

comparison tool.

There are many freeware XML editors available, but a simple text editor can also be used.

It is beyond the scope of this manual to provide details about how to edit XML ﬁles, however

here's some basic information:

All strings are included in a CDATA section, in the UTF-8 format.

All integer values are in simple textual form: 127 = "127"

All ﬂoat and double values are stored in Base64 format.

Any binary data is stored in Base64 format.
