Did Audirvana made any changes to your files?

Many tracks in my library were modified on May 16th  after, I installed Audirvana Studio.

 

To mention just a few of them:

 

3 tracks of AcDc, Back in Black at 21:54

 

3 tracks of Daft Punk, RAM at  22:00

 

2 tracks of Marcus Miller, Renaissance at 22:35

 

2 of Ryuichi Sakamoto, Beauty at 22:46  

 

          ...and so on.

 

I didn't touch them. I don't like this.

 

What file format was it?

Flac?

 

I had run AS over my NAS folder with DSF files when I read about these metadata changes, but could not retrieve any changes in my files (yet).

This makes we wondering which file formats have been changed under which condition by AS...

 

Does same behaviour occurs for AIFF files then ...???

And I don‘t accept any software touching my curated files without my permission either !

Jud, I do appreciate your expertise on this topic.

 

IMO, altering the presentation of music information from the way I wanted it to look like, and doing so by adding new content to the metadata area in the music file which I have obtained through a purchase, does mean a modification of my property. 

 

I have not seen an opt-in or opt-out tab or a pop window informing me about this automated editing.

 

I am open to learn more about how to identify the modified files and to revert them back to the original status.

However an information to the customer about this „feature“ is the least I would have expected from a company with this background.

Thx Jud, good advice for Saffuria and other users.

 

Yate doesn‘t do the job I am afraid.
