Hi Ben,
Thank you for this update, which is working well for me, except for one issue:
I have updated Max from 8.2.2 to 8.3.1 and found out that the header of AIFF files recorded by the sfrecord~ object has significantly changed. The AIFF files from 8.3.3 play fine on many audio players but some custom software packages(written in C) I use to analyze and process the recordings crash while checking the header, while they have no issue loading AIFF files recorded with Max v 8.2.2.
I am attaching a snapshot of the headers of AIFF files recorded with sfrecord~ in Max 8.3.1 and Max 8.2.2 that clearly shows the difference between the headers.
Is it possible to switch back to the older AIFF header/format, which seems compatible with more players/software packages?
Thank you.
Adam
@ADAM thanks for this. I'll share this with the team so we can take a closer look!
