Speech recognition
Edit by reading the words
Especially useful for audiobooks and long recordings: TwistedWave recognizes the speech in your file and synchronizes it with the text script.
- Select words, and TwistedWave selects the audio.
- Select audio, and TwistedWave selects the words.
Video sync
Edit the audio, the video follows
Open a video and it plays along with the audio. Edit the sound and save the movie with the new soundtrack. You can even have the picture follow the edits: cut the audio and the matching frames are cut; reverse or slow a passage and the video does the same.
Silence detection
Automatically split on silence
A powerful built-in silence detector makes it easy to split an audio file into separate parts and save each one.
- Detect the silences
- Name the different parts
- Export as individual files
Batch processing
Process thousands of files at once
The batch engine works on any number of files, or entire folder hierarchies, applying any number of effects: amplify, run an Audio Unit or VST plugin, change the sample rate, and more.
Save the results in a different format to use it as a powerful batch converter, or generate waveform images from a list of files.
ZTX time-stretch & pitch-shift
Change pitch and speed, independently
Powered by the ZTX technology licensed from Zynaptiq GmbH, one of the most advanced time/pitch algorithms available, with excellent audio quality for pro work.
ZTX also drives automatic pitch correction, shifting any passage to the closest note.
Metadata
Extensive metadata support
Read and save artist, title and album art for aiff, wav, mp3, mp4, flac and ogg/vorbis files. TwistedWave also supports BWAV and Soundminer metadata for wav and aiff, and can store them as foreign metadata in flac files.
Special pasting
Smooth fades when you copy/paste
A special pasting mode fades the clipboard and the existing audio in and out so transitions stay smooth. A live sketch previews the file in blue and the clipboard in red, so you see exactly where the fades fall.
Clip list
Rearrange audio with the Clip List
Radio package editing becomes easy: zip through a long recording, copy the parts you want to the clip list, then build a new document from your clips. It doubles as a playlist, so you can reorder and play them all.
And much more
A complete audio toolbox
iPhone ringtones
Cut your favourite part, fade in and out, export to the ringtone format, and you're done.
Background processing
Loading a huge file or applying a complex effect? It runs in the background while you keep editing.
Effect stacks
Load any number of Audio Unit or VST plugins, preview them together and reorder them freely.
Blazing fast
Zoom and scrub at over 100 redraws per second, even on multi-hour files that are still loading.
Unlimited undo
Undo every change you've ever made to a file, instantly. Experiment without fear.
Sounds great
Up to 32-bit / 192 kHz, with the best-sounding time and pitch manipulation in the industry.
Many formats
wav, aiff, mp3, mp4, m4a, m4b, aac, caf, flac, ogg, WavPack, Wave64, Ambisonic B-Format and more.
Multichannel
Edit mono, stereo or any number of channels, and apply multichannel Audio Unit or VST plugins.
