<![CDATA[removing headers for unknown files for soundfiler]]>Hello again :)
Another question: is there any way to remove heades for unknown files for soundfiler. Maybe some database shows how long headers is for different files somewhere online or? My idea is to open for example an image file, but not being able to edit the header, edit the file in an array and writing it back to an image file with the same header... basically editing the files in an array but opening it back up as the original file type if possible. Can anyone help with this?
Thanks

This......
should help ypu, although I am unsure because I have not watched it (yet).
You can probably put (a) header back by saving the result as a wav file.

You need to know the length of the header to specify it when loading raw files with soundfiler... But an alternative to this, would be to forget converting it back to an image for now, and find a way to make cool textfiles (maybe generatively) and then listening to those, or turning them into an image... So you kind of make the source material yourself somehow and then scramble around with it later...

I want to get an understanding of the "file/data" side of computers to use it in music and maybe images :) Sorry if my explanation is unclear, but I don't know much about the topic... thank you :)
