 How do you get the impression?

I get this impression by an unreliable method called intuition, and I

To reproduce your Intuition, you can only use your intuition...
Im not sure... do you want to find out if the material souds good, vor do you want to detect Codecs?
For the first, use intuition, for the second i am not aware of tools dedicated to that usecase.
