Document-based Audio Editor
Wave Editor is THE audio editor for Mac OS X. Designed in Cocoa from the ground up, Wave Editor proudly takes advantage of CoreAudio, Quartz, and other solid OS X features.
Wave Editor takes over where Peak, Spark and Sound Designer II left off - incorporating the standard audio editing features you're used to working with while bringing you up-to-date with the latest advances in interface design, speed and stability, without compromising the power.
Wave Editor introduces the concept of "layered audio" to audio editing. Layer portions of audio (in any format), Audio Units and fades on top of each other, edit to your heart's content, then flatten your file to get a result that would have taken much longer the old-fashioned way!
Wave Editor introduces "SmartEdits" and the "Edit List". Slice audio into sections, move them wherever you want (even between documents), assign names, colors, fades (and more) and make them work together for the most unique and flexible crossfades. If you're familiar with Sound Designer II's "Playlists", take the next step with Wave Editor's "Edit List".
Wave Editor includes an advanced Inspector, statistical analyzer, audio processing, three advanced meters, full support for Audio Units, bezier curve-based fades, support for MP3 and AAC, portable document templates and much much more!
