WAV files are a popular type of audio file that store audio clips with varying bitrates, making it possible to maintain CD-quality sound. BWF files are broadcast wave files containing supplementary data that goes with the audio, including timestamps and header information. BWF files are able to be read and edited in several different audio and video programs like Cakewalk and Final Cut Pro. If you would like to turn your WAV file into a BWF, it is possible to convert between the two formats.
BWF-O-Matic is a companion program to BWF-Widget Pro. While BWF-Widget Pro deals mainly with Metadata, BWF-O-Matic is designed to non-destructively slice and dice Broadcast Wav Files while maintaining all the metadata and Time Code from the original file. BWF is abbreviation of Broadcast Wave Format which is a file format for audio data and the updated version of WAV file, but what BWF really differs from WAV is BWF contains an extra 'chunk' to show the content information, like title, origination, date, time, etc.
