Editor's review
Digital Audio Editor is a digital-audio editor with a user-friendly price. It`s the perfect program for home studio recording and for people just getting started with audio editing.
Pros: A user friendly interface allows the digital audio recorder to record, mix and edit audio in straightforward manner. At the first level there are some standard noise reductions possibilities. These are the cassette noise reduction that helps reduce the pattern noise created by cassettes playing back. For voice recordings there is the breath noise reduction. Various mixing possibilities exist for mixing audio inputs on several input ports of the sound card that include the windows audio players such as the WMA.
The built in editor makes the standard cut/paste edits to be done easily on the graphic display presented for the recorded tracks. Adding a range of effects such as reverb, chorus, echo etc are as easy as selecting the effect from the menu and the track is updated immediately. Use the player controls to listen and make sure the track has the desired effects. You could do the edits on left and right channels individually or together. A range of effects related to volumes, starting from normalization of the channels are possible. Most major formats are supported. Though the editor is meant for amateurs it is possible to achieve professional effects out of the same. The undo feature can always be put to good use if one still goes wrong. Analyzer tools help identify problems in the recording, if any in waveform or the spectral view.
Cons: Output formats supported are the formats supported for telecom codecs rather than music formats. Exceptions are the WAV, MP3, OGG and the WMA formats.
Overall: Quite a well designed application that has a simple to use interface is rated for an overall 4 star level.
