"MS uses a cracked version of Soundforge 4.5 to make WAV files and ships the results in windows. Want proof? File : c:\WINDOWS\Help\Tours\WindowsMediaPlayer\Audio\Wav \WMPAUD1.WAV Length : 354468 RIFF : 354460 WAVE fmt : 50 Format : 0x2 => WAVE_FORMAT_MS_ADPCM Channels : 2 Sample Rate : 22050 Block Align : 1024 Bit Width : 4 Bytes/sec : 22311 Extra Bytes : 32 Samples/Block : 1012 No. of Coeffs : 7 Index Coeffs1 Coeffs2 0 256 0 1 512 -256 2 0 0 3 192 64 4 240 0 5 460 -208 6 392 -232 fact : 4 frames : 349439 data : 354304 LIST : 66 INFO ICRD : 2000-04-06 IENG : Deepz0ne ISFT : Sound Forge 4.5 End bpred idelta (1, 1) (16, 16) ---------------------------------------- Sample Rate : 22050 Frames : 350152 Channels : 2 Format : 0x00010013 Sections : 1 Seekable : TRUE Duration : 00:00:15.879 Signal Max : 21848 (-3.52 dB) Sound Forge saves the name of the registered user to the IENG ('Engineer') field, which means ...
