WAV File Metadata

Metadata is additional information embedded into each recording alongside the recorded audio. The Song Meter Mini 2 saves metadata in the open GUANO format. Software that supports the GUANO format can view these metadata fields. Kaleidoscope Pro Sound Analysis Software can display these fields with or without a paid license. See GUANO Metadata Fields for a list of metadata fields included in this format.

Additional Metadata

Full-spectrum .wav files include additional metadata not shown in the GUANO fields. If you open a .wav recording from a Song Meter Mini 2 in the desktop Mini/Micro configurator, the program will display all of the settings and schedule parameters that were programmed on the recorder that produced the recording.
