Highlights in the Suite – more possibilities for audio editing
This complete package for recording, editing and processing audio files includes various powerful plug-ins from MAGIX and renowned partners and sets a new standard in the audio world.
Steinberg SpectraLayers Pro
SpectraLayers powers your audio editing workflow by displaying sounds as visual objects. Unparalleled selection tools developed over many years are now joined by new artificial intelligence-driven audio extraction and repair processes, making this the most significant version of SpectraLayers yet. Unparalleled selection tools developed over many years are complemented by artificial intelligence-driven technology for audio extraction and restoration of recordings. An ideal companion software to SOUND FORGE Pro Suite.
Artificial intelligence with sensory integration.
SpectraLayers allows you to both see the spectrum of your audio as well as touch, shape, and design it. Enjoy an even faster path to achieving perfect audio thanks to support for artificial intelligence that recognizes musical patterns and performs operations.
The ideal basis for AI-assisted processing
Manual selection tools let you make every type of edit from rough changes with a broad brush to microscopic tweaks. AI-powered processes make SpectraLayers even more accurate and versatile, so you can achieve optimal results faster than ever before.
From scientific work to free improvisation
Use the AI's speed and precision to split a sample into layers and mix them as desired. Separate tracks into stems and stems into individual components entirely automatically. Identify, isolate, and process transients, tones, and noises in extracted instruments. Get detailed and shapeable sound with surgical precision thanks to SpectraLayers.
Repair and restore
Manually or fully automatically use AI-powered tools to: Find and remove errors or unwanted noise, reduce hiss, repair clips, remove clicks, tame transients, and more. Work quickly and accurately to achieve stunning results you never thought possible.
Celemony Melodyne essential
Melodyne provides you with unparalleled access to all the musical details in your recordings and samples - note by note.
This is made possible by sophisticated analysis that deeply examines your recordings and samples to identify and understand the musical relationships within them: The individual notes and their properties, the scales and chords used, timing, tempo, and sound. And then, all of it can be edited intuitively with Melodyne.
Vintage Effects Suite
The Vintage Effects Suite expands the palette of effects with a Chorus/Flanger, a delay, and a filter plug-in, CORVEX, ECOX and FILTOX, all of which are based on the same simple operating principle and will wow you with their incredibly exciting effect sounds.
ECOX
Ecox is a inspiring plug-in that emulates realistic tape echo sounds. It even authentically reproduces system-related problems found in the analog models, such as synchronization fluctuations, tracking fluctuations, and loss of high-frequency response with every feedback.
FILTOX
Control the frequency response of a modulation source with the Filtox plug-in, which offers a whole new range of creative possibilities for distorting synth sounds (e.g. filter sweeps on pads) or drum loops.
CORVEX
Corvex creates an elegant tapestry of sound with analog-style chorus and flanger effects. Lend your instruments acoustic depth and make them sound much fuller, or create the illusion that an object is multi-layered.
VariVerb II
VariVerb II (short for: VARIable reVERB) is a high-quality reverb plug-in that runs on an algorithmic basis.
It provides a series of rooms, halls, reverb plates, spring reverb modules, and so-called non-linear effects, which can be edited comprehensively and easily.
Sound design for drums, vocals and guitars
VariVerb II offers more depth and more texture for your audio. The huge range of presets for drums, vocals and guitars in this plug-in are based on a variety of algorithms and can be used not just for making improvements, but as the starting point for complex sound design.
Precisely calculated reflection pattern
Use VariVerb II to create reverb based on complex reflection pattern and various software models rather than on the basis of impulse responses. Create various effects with adjustable parameters such as room, hall, plate, spring modules, and non-linear reverb, all based on algorithmic calculations.
Vandal
Vandal is a virtual guitar and bass amplifier with impressive effects that provides the characteristic sound and feel of a real hardware setup with the advantages of a software application – all for you to enjoy on your computer!
It lets you easily simulate any kind of guitar effect in a realistic way.
