Sorry I should have been clearer - I was referring to the .cpr project
files. That's why I thought it was interesting that they're in the RIFF
format. A WAV is always in the RIFF format hence wouldn't have piqued my
curiosity :).

I assume that all of the audio files are in standard WAV format, and are
then referenced by name from the .cpr file. I'm at work so I don't have
the time to do a thorough investigation unfortunately. I'll try to get
the time to have a more thorough look tonight.
