Metadata is critical information, containing specific attributes like intensity, complexity, BPM, keywords, markers, etc. Audio Design Desk uses this information to maintain awareness of what sounds are, where and how they should be placed and how they relate to other content in the library.

Clicking the “Edit” button (pencil icon) when one audio region is selected will open the Metadata Window. Here you can quickly make edits to this single file and keep working.
