Hi, Steve,
What I was thinking of in iZotope was the Export File dialogue which
contains, across the top:
WAV, AIFF, FLAC, OGG
For WAV, the options are:
Bit depth, Dither
(check) BWF (check) Preserve non-audio data
(check) Reopen file in RX OK Cancel
It is the two check boxes below Bit depth and dither:
When exporting from RX, the WAV file is created anew.
With BWF checked, I think that passes through the other BWF data.
With Preserve non-audio data, I think that passes through other data
(such as the BWF MetaEdit MD5 checksum and probably the tags that Tom is
discussing).
Thanks for asking, Steve. I just posted this to the RX forum:

I know nothing about WaveLab since 6.1.
