Software-update: Audacity 4.0.1

Audacity logoVersie 4.0.1 van Audacity is uitgekomen. Deze open source audio-editor, die beschikbaar is voor Windows, Linux en macOS, kan geluid opnemen en WAV-, AIFF-, Ogg- en MP3-bestanden importeren en exporteren. Het programma heeft een ongelimiteerde undofunctie en heeft daarnaast een grote verzameling effecten aan boord, zoals fade-in en fade-out, echo, tempowijziging en ruisonderdrukking. Meer effecten kunnen eenvoudig worden toegevoegd, want het programma ondersteunt onder meer Nyquist-, VST- en Ladspa-plug-ins. In deze uitgave zijn de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen aangebracht:

Weergave:

Op zich is spectral editing al wel mogelijk in audacity 4. Alleen de selectie is beperkt tot een rechthoek. Je kunt de volgende dingen doen:
  • Delete selection
  • Delete selection center frequency
  • Amplify selection
  • Amplify selection center frequency
Weet ik, maar volledig te editten zoals in Audition 5.5 gaat niet. Jammer voor zo'n voor de rest geslaagd programma.
De (een) portable versie lijkt me heel erg handig. Je bent ergens en (snel ff) . . .
Net gisteren weer eens geïnstalleerd, mis nog steeds het editten in de spectral view wat Adobe Audition 5.5 wel doet, blijkbaar is dit programma nog geen vervanger daarvoor helaas.
