Prepare your data for the pressing plant and export Disc Description Protocol masters. DDP masters allow you to specify all the parameters for the CD to be able to reproduce it industrially in large quantities. Everything is compatible with the Redbook standard, of course.

For the creation of CDs with the burner for home use, the Disc-At-Once and Track-At-Once methods are supported. For this purpose, track markers and track names can be conveniently specified directly from the program.

The Loudness visualization displays the loudness of your audio files in a continuous graph in relation to the timeline and as numerical values.



Enjoy support for EBU R 128 and ITU-R BS.1770-4 formats thanks to true-peak analysis in dbTP that offers intuitive color coding to simplify your workflow.

WaveColor adds a new dimension to your waveform display through the use of succinct colors, giving you an overview of what your project sounds like. Enjoy a clearer overview of your project thanks to clear colorization of waveforms. Pitches and sound characteristics are assigned different colors and saturation levels, which make it easy to see all the important parts of your project at a glance.

The Spectroscope offers precise and detailed real-time frequency analysis. Display the relationship of volume to frequency in a graph accurately and quickly. Advanced FFT algorithms allow visualization of what otherwise can't be heard.

Measure the peak levels of your audio signal precisely and reliably – Peak meter offers an extensively configurable visual display of the levels in real time, support for multichannel, and convenient peak hold. A wide range of scales are included, making the meter compliant with all common standards.

audEERING's groundbreaking tools are based on the latest AI technology. Vocals and spoken text can be detected in pieces of music and passages are marked in a clearly. This provides you with a quick overview of comprehensive projects.

The phase scope helps you find phase cancellation between channels in the audio file. You can use the correlation meter to identify and fix limitations to mono compatibility between channels.

Commercial Advertisement Loudness Mitigation Act (CALM) regulates overall loudness during ad breaks. CALM standard metering provides ultra-precise loudness measuring and displays an audio signal's dynamic range in visual form, ensuring full compliance with standards.

Monitor the ratio of fundamentals and harmonics in multichannel files using clear, customizable color schemes. Quickly and easily create snapshots and overlays in order to compare and adjust frequencies.

The tool for identifying and selecting clipped peaks automatically scans audio files to locate instances of clipping, allowing you to see them at a glance.
