SFK file extension is associated with Sound Forge Pro, a sound editing application developed by Sony Creative Software. It enables users to record and edit sounds, apply audio effects, and create and burn audio CDs. SFK is a Sound Forge Audio Peak file (also known as Peak format), which stores audio data or peak information. This file type is used to store the peak information for an audio file, which are used for visualization purposes, such as displaying a level meter.
Technical Details
SFK files are stored in binary format and cannot be opened directly in audio applications. All SFK peak information can be stored in the original sound file itself, but using this separate file allows faster loading times of the data when performing editing tasks. An SFK file typically has a.sfk extension, although it may have other extensions depending on the application being used to store the peak information. The file contains size and position information about an audio clip and this data provides information on sample levels without having to analyze them with audio analysis tools.
Similar File Types
The SFK (Sound Forge Audio Peak) file extension is associated with other popular audio files such as .AAC, .AIF, .WAV, .MP3, and .OGG.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .SFK) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .SFK extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .SFK file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .SFK extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .SFK extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .SFK file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .SFK file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .SFK file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .SFK file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .SFK file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
