I would like to be able to write PCM wav files with 32-bit floating point samples. This seems to be a valid format since libsndfile claims to support it.
However, if I specify in my header a sample size of 32-bits, any program I open it in assumes that it's 32-bit integer data. What flags, etc need to be set in the wav file header to specify floating point data?
Can anyon开发者_如何学Goe point me to some documentation that explains how to do this?
You need to set the wFormat tag in the 'fmt' chunk to WAVE_FORMAT_IEEE_FLOAT (3).
A good source for the WAVE format specification is this page.
