Re: [ARSCLIST] InSearchOf: Batch Editor to REVERSE WAV files

For what it's worth, I did use WAV reverse to play "Revolution #9" backwards. No hidden messages, 
just the too-long nonsense in reverse.

My understanding was the former to allow for one pass digitizing of
stereo 1/4 track 1/4" tape, or similar bi-directionally recorded
materials.

I own the newest version of Sound Forge, but I've never tried batch
reversal, only sample rates and the like. Let me try it and see... If

Does this thread relate to playing sound files backwards (which might be
needed if one played a four-track tape on a commercial stereo deck...?)
...or playing it forward but "upside down" (i.e. inverting the wave form
and playing THAT...?!)

of controversies per "secret messages" on Beatles LP's...)
