There is certainly some overlap in DAWs and audio editors, but an audio editor can do some essential tasks much more efficiently than a DAW, and in some cases can do things impossible in a DAW, however high-end that DAW might be. So why would you need more? The answer is that audio editing software has a slightly different focus than a DAW. Most of you reading this review will already own at least one fairly capable DAW which no doubt offers some serious audio editing capabilities. Those wishing to learn of what’s not new may read the earlier review here: All the functionality present in those versions is still with us and I’m going to focus primarily on new features here.
At that time Wavelab was at version 8.5 and Elements at version 8.
I reviewed Wavelab and Elements, in our Jan. For brevity, hereafter “Wavelab” will be used to denote “Wavelab Pro” and “Elements” to denote “Wavelab Elements”. In this review we will look at the new releases of Steinberg’s high-end audio editor software, Wavelab Pro, and the scaled-down and much more economically-priced “lite” version, Wavelab Elements. Steinberg Wavelab Pro 11 audio editing and mastering software professional software for mastering and audio editing as well as content creation for podcasts, vlogs and social-media editing of mono, stereo or interleaved multi-channel files up to 22.2 surround and Ambisonics formats and 384 kHz sample rate seamless integration of external editors divide multichannel files into mono- or stereo cluster for fast import unlimted number of audio tracks Track Groups for multitrack or stems workflows up to eight Track Lanes per audio track allowing for enhanced flexibility in stem and multitrack editing parameter automation of VST3 effects with clip envelopes SuperVision audioanalyzer with 9 slots for 27 different analyzer modules Master section with up to 12 effect slots, many included effects and MasterRig plugin suite with equalizer, dynamic eq, compressor, limiter, saturator, imager and M/S mode integration of external analogue effects with own level meters and controls easy-to-use audio effects sections Clean and Enhance inside the Track Inspector for quick results LIN Pro Dithering plugin developed by MAAT delivers high-quality bit reduction EBU.Steinberg’s audio editors for the professional and the home studio have new versions, both of them sporting impressive new features which merit your attention.
