Master your CD projects using over 20 real-time DirectX^® effects including EQ, compression, reverb, and noise gate. Apply effects to individual events, parts of events, or the master bus. CD Architect™ software provides full DirectX^® support, so you can use your favorite audio plug-ins to enhance your projects.

 

Prevent phase cancellation when crossfading your audio files. Reverse the phase of events when mixing or crossfading audio signals on the fly.

 

The tiered audio layering in CD Architect 5.0 software makes CD layout, mastering, and design extremely efficient. Create complex crossfades and produce DJ-style megamixes. Add sound effects and voiceovers in an instant. Play back portions of media together, piece together parts of songs, and choose from different mixes to create the perfect final take.

 

Maximize your CD project's audio volume to prevent clipping. Multiple events can be normalized instantly by selecting events and checking the Normalize checkbox in the Playlist window.

 

Edit the time and pitch of tracks on the fly. Stretch the length of an event and perform a pitch shift or a time stretch based on the event properties.

 

Maintain precise editing control when working with audio events. Use slip trimming to preserve an event's duration and position while at the same time changing the in and out points used by the event.

 

Apply extremely accurate fades and crossfades. Zoom in farther than 1 pixel to 1 sample, allowing for greater editing precision.

 

Adjust volume over time, and create customized fades and crossfades between events using ASR envelopes. CD Architect also includes two new fade types: smooth and sharp.

 

Quickly find edit points using the scrub control in CD Architect software. Scan through your project forward or backward and accelerate the playback rate. Use JKL keyboard commands to quickly find sections in your projects.
