Aural Console: an audio inventory scanner built for the deep end
A professional audio application for scanning, analyzing, marking, reporting on, and preparing large audio collections.
- For
- Audio archivists, broadcast teams, and field researchers
- Worth noticing
- Its lock mode is described as preserving original file bytes and timestamps; markers can be stored in a database, hidden folder, or sidecar files.
Field notes
The page shows application-recorded examples for hydrophone recordings, whale-song analysis, orchestral playback, and immersive Foley. Its documentation links cover seven areas, including measurement methods, live analyzers, cue and sidecar handling, and batch export; the site says locked scans leave original bytes and timestamps untouched. Public access appears to be in a pre-release phase: the page invites beta accreditation and pilot requests rather than offering a public download.
