Hi Mark:
I have no idea what a BIN/CUE is.
Soundforge has its own scripting ability, but I notice that it has trouble even doing SAVE-AS from
WAV to FLAC with a large high-rez file, so I don't have much confidence in messing with scripting.
In any case, scripting stuff is computer programming and I'm an audio guy, not a computer guy. It's
less familiar than Greek to me.
So there's nothing out there like the MP3 conversion and tagging programs for FLAC?
