Soundtrack Pro 3. Powerful Audio Editing.

Soundtrack Pro 3 features a streamlined interface that allows video editors to work efficiently with familiar tools, while simultaneously providing the depth and control that audio professionals need to complete the most complex projects.

Customizable multitrack interface

The multitrack Timeline is combined with the File Editor in a single-window interface that lets you fly through audio editing and mixing. Start with a simple Timeline, then progressively disclose additional interface controls for sophisticated tasks. You can customize toolbars and screen layouts, including configurations for single- and dual-display systems.

Nondestructive, multichannel File Editor

Use the integrated File Editor to perform quick edits on any clip in the Timeline, and open the standalone File Editor to access advanced controls. Every operation you perform appears in the Actions list, which lets you modify, suspend, and reorder your audio edits. Tight integration with Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro makes it easy to round-trip mono or multichannel audio files.

The Frequency Spectrum view displays audio frequency over time, with amplitude revealed through colour intensity. Select portions of the audio frequency with pinpoint precision, then edit them without affecting other frequencies. You can now adjust the amplitude of frequency selections as well as cut, copy, and paste them.

Fast navigation

New features designed for audio post let you save time and work with greater precision. You can work faster than ever using new commands for trimming and extending clips and adding fades. Instantly access commonly used track controls through menu items and keyboard shortcuts that are consistent with Final Cut Pro shortcuts.

Work efficiently with new options for playhead scrolling, multiple concurrent snap levels for playhead and clips, user-definable nudge, and shortcuts for auditioning changes. Support for Multi-Touch trackpad gestures lets you zoom, toggle windows, and control playback without reaching for a mouse. Use the new Waveform Zoom function to closely inspect low-amplitude audio clips right in the Timeline.

Advanced time stretch

Time stretching allows you to change the duration of audio without affecting pitch. Stretch and compress audio with unprecedented precision using three Apple time-stretch algorithms as well as popular third-party plug-ins (sold separately).

You can use the Actions list to edit, suspend, and reorder time-stretch operations. A new option in the Time Stretch window lets you specify duration as a percentage with up to four decimal places. The window also displays the number of samples added or removed as you stretch or compress audio.
