These include playback 'anchors' with associated 'play from' and 'play to' commands, and adjustable pre/post-roll settings, so you can more quickly audition different portions of your audio files. This, of course, is in constant use, and whereas it was previously partly duplicated on the Central Switcher Bar, and at risk of getting lost among the other Command Bars, it now sits above or below the main waveform windows, consolidating all the existing transport commands into one neat area and offering a number of improvements and new options. The most obvious change across the Audio and Montage windows is the redesigned Master Transport Panel. There are also, of course, numerous new features.
#WAVELAB 8.5 UPDATE PDF#
This time around, there's a massive 823-page Operation Manual in PDF format for those who fancy some computer-based bedside reading matter, with the same in-depth information available as context-sensitive help from within Wavelab 8 itself. The biggest sore point about version 7 for many users was the lack of a comprehensive manual, so let me reassure you on this count right away. I even found myself noticing for the first time smaller items that had appeared in Wavelab 7. From subtle changes in parts of the GUI colour scheme that provide greater contrast while helping to tie everything together, to the new design clarity of many of the icons, which makes their function more obvious, this latest version is instantly familiar, yet easier to take in at a glance. The first thing that struck me when I launched the new version was just how slick it looks compared with version 7. Nearly three years on, Wavelab has taken further strides forward in version 8.
#WAVELAB 8.5 UPDATE MAC OS X#
Not only were there numerous new features, but for the first time it became a cross-platform application running on Mac OS X as well as Windows. Version 7 of Steinberg's Wavelab audio editing package was perhaps the biggest upgrade in the program's history. Note, in particular, the new Master Transport Panel across the bottom, the better use of colour for highlighting, the Speaker Configuration section at bottom left, and the new MBIT dither options.Īlways moving with the times, Steinberg's Wavelab now includes comprehensive loudness metering, along with new plug-ins and an improved interface. Version 8 of Wavelab has, in my opinion, the clearest and slickest GUI to date.
