Metatogger ~ Windows Audio Tag Management


Metatogger is a tag editor for audio files. These tags or metadata are helping to exploit with more efficiency audio files data. Most of the files are not coming along with metadata, while others are having wrong, useless or inconsistent data. Sometimes, even file name doesn’t reflect the true content of the file. It is then difficult to identify the piece without playing it. This is where Metatogger makes it great.

Metatogger allows correcting or completing audio files tags. It comes with features that allow:

    • manual tags editing or with C# scripts;
    • retrieve tags from file name or paths;
    • rename files with tags content;
    • look after duplicate audio files;
    • organize files according to tags (copy, move, symbolic link);
    • retrieve tags in a local database of 1.5 million public records;
    • retrieve covers and lyrics from Internet;
    • identify files using acoustic fingerprinting technology;
    • easily clean unwanted tags.

Metatogger works with Ogg Vorbis, FLAC, M4A (AAC and ALAC) and WMA.

Jniz ~ Compose With Harmonies


Jniz is a free proprietary piece of software designed for musicians as a support tool to the musical composition. It allows you to build and to harmonize several voices according to the rules of classical harmony.

To be convinced of the limitations observed and of the work done by the great classical masters such as Bach, Mozart or Beethoven, please refer to Wikipedia, the Walter Piston Harmony book or the Schonberg theory.

The perfect knowledge and the good practice of these rules are not required but you will undoubtedly save time and it will help you greatly in using and understanding the mechanism of Jniz.

  • interface of musical notation which allows you to create, edit, save a score
  • number of voices up to 16 (256 with layers).
  • possibility to change of Key at any time.
  • Jnz, MusicXml, LillyPond, Midi, PDF export.
  • listen to the available Midi ports.

  • redo / undo
  • Non harmonic tones (appoggiatura, echappee, suspension, passing, pedal, cambiata, anticipation)
  • Minor melodic keys
  • Chords notation recognition
  • harmonic correction of your work following the set of predefined rules
  • to give one or several solutions in case of fault if one or more rules are circumvented (Solver module).
  • Empty staves filled up by Solver (Auto Harmonizing)
  • Keys / modulations simulation tool
  • Cadences
  • Solvers serialization

LASTAR ~ Batch File Splitting & Normalization


LASTAR is a batch (non-interactive) audio processor for loudness adjustment and file splitting of a batch of audio recordings, using an audio transparent maximizer.

At the opposite of usual available software, loudness normalization is done on signal power, which leads to a louder and more homogeneous result than the usual “peak” normalization, in particular on live recordings.

Its purpose is:

  • to split, equalize and normalize digitized analog tapes or vinyl
  • to split, equalize and normalize live recordings from microphones (ex ZOOM H2 recordings)
  • fast and homogeneous normalization of a group of files (compilation for instance)
  • loudness and dynamic reduction for listening in a noisy environment (car…)
  • and so on…

This software aims to be very fast and easy to use : the most efficient computing techniques have been implemented, and there are very few parameters to set (most of them are automatically adjusted by analyzing the file).

It embeds:

  • an automatic RMS normalizer,
  • an Automatic Gain Controller (compressor)
  • a 10 bands automatic equalizer
  • a 3 bands semi-parametric equalizer
  • a file splitter
  • a noise gate
  • preset management
  • a preview function.
