Then you need to use dynamic naming and the following scheme (including
the brackets at the end).

[TRIMFIRSTFOLDER][origpath]\[origfilename][]

The above goes in the "dynamic" box (you select SET then copy the
above). And you select the "radio button" next to dynamic.

In the FOLDER (just above the dynamic), you'd put something like

D:\FLAC\

So what this dynamic naming scheme does is NOT USE your first folder
(and instead use \FLAC as the first folder.  But the rest will be
exactly the same structure (artist/album/track) that is underneath your
WAV lossless files. Obviously your drive may not be D:.

Even if dbpoweramp can't read the WAV tags, the nice thing here is that
you can use mp3tag (great program and it does FLAC too), to create
metadata (tags) from your file names.  So when you are done, given your
file naming structure, you can end up easily with tags containing
correct artist, album name, track number, and title.

ALWAYS TEST THESE SORT OF THINGS ON A SMALL SUBSET OF FILES
FIRST.....AND OF COURSE YOU SHOULD ALWAYS HAVE AT LEAST ONE BACKUP.
