Can the exhale application write or copy metadata to an encoded file? Can the exhale application write or copy metadata to an encoded file?

If, by metadata, you mean iTunes-style artist/song/cover metadata: no, and there currently is no plan to add support for this. See [this question](https://gitlab.com/ecodis/exhale/-/wikis/faq#i-get-corrupted-files-when-encoding-using-exhale-via-foobar2000-why) for a work-around. If you are talking about ReplayGain-style peak/loudness metadata: this is taken care of by the dynamic range control (DRC) metadata according to [ISO/IEC 23003-4](https://www.iso.org/standard/75930.html), which is supported since version 1.0.1 of this software. See also the exhale release notes in the `include` subdirectory. Note, however, that album loudness data is not explicitly supported by the exhale application (since it can only treat each audio file independently).

If you use the "Converter Setup" window to convert your audio files into the xHE-AAC format, don't forget to select the exhale encoder under `Output format` (see the [README.md](https://gitlab.com/ecodis/exhale/blob/master/README.md) file for details).
