More efficiency. More stability. More speed.
The all-new SOUND FORGE Pro 13 offers musicians, producers and sound designers more efficiency, stability and speed for every audio production task: from recording and editing to restoration and mastering.
Better user experience
New custom interface
Customizable user interface
SOUND FORGE Pro 13's new user interface can now be adapted to your lighting environment and is available in four different colour tones: White, Light, Medium or Dark. Adjust the user interface for maximum comfort when working with audio.
New icon design
Get the complete picture. Newly designed icons make it easier to find various functions in SOUND FORGE Pro 13. In an instant, you'll know where to click to start a recording, cut audio files or save projects.
Revised docking
Now the window structure is completely tailored to your needs for various functions and audio processing tasks. From recording to mastering, there are presets for all the functions you need in every application.
More stability and efficiency
Upgraded VST engine & ARA2 support

Improved VST engine
SOUND FORGE Pro's VST2/3 engine has been further developed to offer greater stability and speed when scanning and using plug-ins. The dialog between the VST host and the effect plug-ins is now more efficient, allowing you to work faster and more accurately.

Improved ARA2 support
The ARA2 interface extension makes the exchange of information between SOUND FORGE Pro and the plug-ins even more extensive, so increases the overall flexibility and speed. This allows the more efficient use of plug-in audio data and real-time editing to be performed.
The new Peak Meter V2
Now you can measure peak levels of your audio signal reliably and correctly. The Peak Meter V2 shows you the precise, current level of an audio signal.
The new Oscilloscope
Deep dive into waveform visualizations with the new oscilloscope. Observe periodic signals or visually check the effects of a plug-in chain in real time.
Precise dynamic control
coreFX mastering effects
coreFX 2-Point Compressor
Compared to a classic compressor, a 2-point compressor has two kink points. This allows you to create different characteristics and offers more freedom when compressing dynamic range.
coreFX Limiter
The limiter sets the maximum value of the processed audio signal level, which then won't be exceeded. Volume differences are eliminated, so that loud and quiet sections are leveled out.

coreFX VolumeFormer
By lowering and raising the volume of a sound track, the VolumeFormer creates a pump effect typically found in dance music. It consists of an AHR (Attack-Hold-Release) envelope and can easily be adjusted.
coreFX Expander
Suppress noise and increase your range, as the dynamics of the audio signal are increased for a more natural sound.
coreFX Compressor
Compress the dynamic range of an audio signal and eliminate volume differences between soft and loud passages.
Accurate echoes
coreFX delay effects
coreFX Delay
Create echoes with the Delay. The simple delay effect is based on analog circuits and produces time-delayed copies of the original input signal to create the echo effect.
coreFX Chorus
For a fuller sound, Chorus produces a time-delayed duplicate of the audio signal with a slight pitch difference. A perceptible doubling and beating effect is created.
Improved time stretching & pitch shifting
zplane élastique Timestretch with new élastiquePro v3 engine
Get impressive time stretching without artifacts, thanks to the new élastiquePro v3 engine. Based on modern psychoacoustic models and signal processing theory, zplane élastique delivers stable timing, cross-channel phase coherence and sample-accurate stretching without sound degradation.
Pitch shifting with Melodyne essential
Celemonys Melodyne essential plug-in contains the legendary tool for correcting recordings. It's renowned algorithms enable precise audio corrections for a wide range of sounds.
