⚠ Critical Session Notes

  • Format Limits: Loop metadata injection strictly supports .wav and .ogg file types. Other formats will fail to export correctly.
  • Destructive Overrides: Any pre-existing loop markers embedded in your file may be permanently overwritten on export. Always back up your original files locally!
  • Browser Sample Offsets: Certain browsers introduce tiny, microsecond rounding delays when decoding compressed audio (like OGG). For frame-perfect alignment, uncompressed WAV is highly recommended.
