Non-contiguous audio selection

Selecting a part of the waveform usually results in a contiguous selection, starting where you clicked the mouse up to the point where you released it. A non-contiguous selection can be thought of as being composed of several simple selections, several regions are selected simultaneously. Here is how a non-contiguous selection can look like: Although [...]

Automatically splitting an audio file

Manually cutting a long file into many different parts, and saving them as individual files can be very tedious and quickly take a lot of time. In this article, I will demonstrate how easily this can be done with TwistedWave, thanks to the built-in silence detector. Detecting the silences When you want to split an [...]

A fix and a new feature.

Bug fix By mistake, I have introduced a small bug in TwistedWave 1.6.1. Namely, some Audio Unit Plugins, or the “Change Speed” effect can freeze TwistedWave when they are applied.

Duplicating documents

Along with the ‘New’, ‘Open’, ‘Save’ and other commands you usually find in the ‘File’ menu, you may not have noticed the ‘Duplicate Document’ item. How useful could that be? Don’t you get a duplicate document just by saving it with another name? Working on an audio document often involves many steps, copy/pasting, applying several [...]

Editing a sound file consists mainly in copy/pasting and applying effects. Although TwistedWave lets you copy and paste bits of the sound file around in no time, applying a sound effect affects every sample, and takes more and more time as the file gets longer. Repeatedly applying effects on a long file becomes a very [...]
