Steinberg have introduced the latest version
of its industry-standard WaveLab editing and mastering software. WaveLab 6 offers a range of exciting new features including the impressive new Spectrum Editor,
enhanced editing and signal processing functions, advanced audio I/O handling and much more.
Claus Menke, Steinberg’s Director of Product Management told us this about the lastest version,
“Version 6 extends the strengths that have made WaveLab a world-standard application for editing, mastering and
restoration. The new features put WaveLab well
and truly into a class of its own, especially at its price-point.�
We’ve listed the main points of the new version below for easy reference…
The new WaveLab Spectrum Editor provides exciting new restoration and editing possibilities, including easy removal of
disturbances and unwanted noise. This extremely versatile editor offers high-quality linear phase filters and flexible
replacement options.
SPECTRUM
The new ‘Surgical’ mode allows ‘copy/paste’ of either a whole region or the background ‘ambience’
of that region, as well as the application any processes to the selection – with full undo and redo functionality.
The wealth of new functions also in
cludes the integration of hardware effect equipment within the mastering process,
allowing engineers to combine the next-generation editing facilities in WaveLab 6 with the unmistakeable sound of their
favourite analogue gear.
The enhanced master section now features SmartBypass, a time-saving new facility for assessing
how a plug-in alters sound textures by compensating for volume changes induced by the plug-in. Similarly new are a range
of quality audio processors including a new sample rate converter and the advanced Dirac time stretching and pitch-shifting
algorithm.
The powerful Audio Montage’s clip handling and editing capability has been further extended to include a range of new
functions such as the new fade editing features which allow for even more flexible editing of fades.
WaveLab 6 also now
features remote controller support via MIDI, so that many WaveLab features can now be used even more intuitively
through a tactile control surface, further speeding up workflow.
New metering and monitoring tools including support for
renowned mastering engineer Bob Katz’ K-System as well as the new loudness distribution window. Price and Availability
WaveLab 6 is currently available at authorized Steinberg dealers for $699 MSRP.
