APEv2 Library 1.0

APEv2 Library by 3delite is a developer-focused component for working with APEv2 metadata tags in audio files. APEv2 is a flexible tagging standard commonly used with formats such as Monkey’s Audio, Musepack, and WavPack. The library provides a straightforward API to read, create, edit, and remove tags without affecting the underlying audio stream. It supports standard and custom fields, handles embedded album art and other binary items, and is designed for fast, reliable batch operations across large music collections. With built-in validation and clear error reporting, it helps you automate tagging safely and consistently—ideal for tag editors, media managers, and server-side processing tools.

Key capabilities:

• Read, create, edit, and delete APEv2 tags
• Access standard fields and arbitrary key/value pairs
• Embed and extract cover art and other binary items
• Validate tags, normalize keys, and detect duplicates
• Perform predictable, high-throughput batch processing
