The most comprehensive Wavelab Pro 9.5 video tutorial

Wavelab Pro 9.5 is the latest incarnation of Steinberg’s world-class audio editing masterpiece. Wavelab is arguably one of the most powerful and sophisticated audio editing platforms in the world. Wavelab is for all intents and purposes more like five advanced programs flying in tight formation. While it’s best known for audio editing, montage, and mastering; it also includes some of the finest audio analysis and restoration tools, a full podcasting production suite and some of the most capable scripting and batch processing tools available. All in one software package. And version nine captures all of this with a new look and feel that’s the most streamlined and straightforward yet.

We will take you from initial set up and connection, through a complete tour of Wavelab’s capabilities and control. We’ll demonstrate the subtle but important ways that Wavelab’s user interface differs from most DAW and music production software, and how to make sense of the new tab groups, file groups, naming conventions and file handling. Even if you’ve never touched Wavelab before, but the end of this section you’ll be up and running.

Would you believe that you can surgically remove the accidental coughing of an audience member from an acoustic recording? Or add reverb to just the snare drum in a fully mixed master track? Or remove a police siren from an otherwise perfect interview? You can, with Wavelab 9.5.

We will also take an in-depth look at the real-world capabilities and techniques for waveform editing, spectrum editing, audio analysis, advanced signal processing, montage creation, mastering and how to use all of the metering tools in Wavelab.

Finally, we’ll conduct a step by step demonstration of how to restore and remaster an old recording, create a basic audio CD of those restored files, create a fully professional Red-Book compliant CD master, create a professional podcast and how to use the new Wavelab Exchange to connect Wavelab and Cubase into a seamless and powerful one-two punch for music editing and mastering.

In this video we will also look at and walk through the new features added in the 9.5 update. We look at how to utilize the new Wavelet view for more musical spectral editing. We cover the difference between logarithmic and linear display modes and how to use the new Audio In-Painting tools after removing troubled audio.

We also look at the new Restore Rig in detail with demonstrations of how to use it and the new Error Correction ribbon in combination with one and other.

We take a brief look at the updated plugins like Vintage Compressor and the new Maximizer. We also demo how to use the new censor-generator, how to apply audio water-marks and how to generate both text-base and image-based spectral watermarks.

We conclude with a walk thorough of the new companion software “DDP Player” which is included with Wavelab 9.5

Wavelab Pro and Wavelab Elements just got better with their latest incarnations, both now at version 9.5. Let’s see what’s new in Steinberg’s masterful audio tools.

by Vincenzo Bellanova, July 2018

New versions of Steinberg’s professional audio editors are here, with great new features that further raise the level of these already impressive software sound utilities.

In this review we will have a tour of the main new features introduced in the 9.5 versions, if you wish to learn more on how Wavelab works, you can check these earlier reviews of WaveLab 8.5 here and Wavelab 9 here.

Wavelab Pro 9.5 and Wavelab Elements are most certainly products that everyone should consider, whether you’re making music, organizing samples, are a mastering engineer or a sound designer. They are audio editors and mastering suites, so their features will move in two directions: morphing, cutting, processing, organizing audio files, or mastering (in fact, almost all of the plugins in the Master Rig have been updated with new features).

So many things are to be found in the suite – and wait, don’t forget about the batch processing options. You can drag entire folders into Wavelab and simply apply fades, or normalize levels, or add one or more effects, to a whole list of files, which can then be exported into a separate folder so you won’t lose your originals. And that is just one of Wavelab’s amazing features. Wavelab (either version) now features a 64-bit audio engine, just like Cubase, that uses double precision computation for increased accuracy and detail from summing, mixing and effects. So there is the possibility of a significant improvement when processing files with this new powerful engine. There’s more: Wavelab now supports High DPI, which means that the software is fully supported by the modern ultra-high resolution displays.

While the Pro version has a list price of €559.00 EUR, and an upgrade price of €59.99 EUR, Elements, whose features are limited compared to its full-featured sibling (but is still absolutely capable of a wide variety of tasks), is €99.00 EUR. Please note that a Steinberg eLicenser dongle, sold separately, is required to activate Pro, but software authorization (i.e., no dongle) can be used with Elements.

Spectrum Editor, Wavelet Display and Audio Inpainting

The new Spectrum Editor stands out. The redesigned Spectrogram now allows more options to customize the display, such as color scale adjustments, frequency span adjustments, and a menu with new frequency scales (these might be familiar for iZotope RX users). In fact these new features allow you to focus more precisely on some frequencies, and thus, process and edit more comfortably.

Wavelab Pro 9.5

The wavelet display is a new feature that we can think of as a superior way to visualize and analyze audio material, since the Spectrogram has a fixed length in the window, and the wavelet displays a higher resolution in the time domain of the high frequencies, and a higher resolution in the frequency domain of the low end.

New visualization options are complemented by new tools, enhancing the possibilities of spectral editing in Wavelab 9.5. We now have new selection tools, like the invert selection tool for the situation in which we want to select everything except the region we intend to preserve. Then there’s the amazing Source at Cursor capability, which if we removed some audio material, will find and copy a region from another part of the file to fill the gap we left. This tool is especially good when we need to remove or restore files that processors like De Buzzer or De Noiser can’t fix. It is not only intelligent, but also very precise. In the Processing Algorithm dropdown menu, we can also notice a Transcode Picture function, which is very useful for watermarking audio by “printing” an image upon the spectrogram – a more discreet, and, again, intelligent solution.

Wavelab Pro 9.5

The Audio Inpainting feature, allows us to analyze and replace the content based on other regions of the same file. We can simultaneously select a region, analyze and automatically replace it. We will have controls on the number of bands in order to adjust the area of analysis according to the type of audio material. It is particularly helpful and will save a lot of time when restoring audio dropouts or replacing accidents, noises, bleeds or mistakes with only a few clicks.

Note that the Wavelet display, Spectrum editor and Audio Inpainting are available only in the Pro version.

New Error Correction Tab and Restore Rig

The tools for correcting clicks and errors in the audio files, have now a dedicated ribbon. All of the tools for both detecting and correcting errors are clearly organized, as the other ribbons are well designed, so it is very easy to find them. Wavelab will not only check the files, but also will place a marker and will give us information on the type of error encountered. Now we have some ready-to-use presets for detecting errors and for correcting them more precisely with the same concept we just discussed, Audio Inpainting. The surrounding regions will be scanned in order to find similar material and replace the clicks we might find without introducing any unwanted unpleasantness. The Error Correction Tab is an exclusive of the Pro version.

But there’s something else that really enhances the usefulness of Wavelab: the Restore Rig, not just limited to Pro. The software now features a set of tools for further audio restoration. It replaces the Sonnox restoration suite, with the new DeNoiser, DeBuzzer and Declicker, which can control, attenuate and eliminate pops, clicks and crackles (or should that be “remove snap, crackle and pop”? [SMILEY]). If we consider these in addition to the spectral editing functions, we can see that Wavelab is filling the audio repair field with intuitive and effective tools. The algorithms of the various processors work really well, and it is quite easy to know what is happening because we can choose to listen to the output noise only. Furthermore, the meters on each of the modules provide a visual feedback on the amount of noise reduction, which in turn can give us an idea of how much processing is going on. These tools can be pushed too far resulting in artifacts and the like, but the instrumentation helps keep that sort of thing in check.

Plug-Ins

A lot of plugins have been updated, not only with larger interfaces and meters, but with new functionality as well. The Vintage Compressor now has a Mix control, so we can layer compressed (sometimes heavily compressed) and dry audio to advantage – a technique is widely referred to as parallel compression.

The Maximizer features a new limiting algorithm, Modern, for even more loudness. Another interesting capability is the Character control, which bring in more compression on the high frequencies, allowing less saturation for the low-end.

Thanks to the new interface, Autopan now allows to draw curves more freely, simply moving the dots on the screen. The EQ in the Master Rig now features a LIN button, which engages the linear phase mode for each of the bands, great feature to give even more precision during the mastering process.

The Batch Processor has been improved as well, with an Audio Mixer which can insert a new audio file in the current one. Then we have the Delay Next process, a subtle but really effective function, with which you can decide to insert a specific delay for the processing steps, so you can be sure that transients or other parts of the audio file are preserved.

DDP Player and Touchbar Integration

A couple of new interesting features are the Touchbar controls for the new MacBook OLED Bar, which guarantees a complete set of tools at our fingertips. The best part is that it is adaptive: the icons will change depending on what we are doing, and this is completely customizable. This feature can enhance the workflow for Mac users, and, moreover, surely demonstrates the attention to workflow details.

Another brand new tool is the DDP (Disc Description Protocol) player included in the Pro version, delivered as a separate application, which allows us to play and be sure that the created DDP information does not contain any errors before declaring a project complete. The interface is essential – we have the possibility to check all the metadata and, in the lower section, we can also check levels one more time with a simple meter. One point more scored for mastering engineers: Audio montage and all the possibilities included in Wavelab Pro.

Conclusions

Steinberg normally delivers the goods when it comes to upgrades, and has done so once again. The new features are, in our opinion, worth the price of upgrading. The enhanced capabilities of the plugins and the whole new set of tools for audio restoration are really making Wavelab more and more complete. An essential suite that I would personally recommend for almost every music related task, from editing clips, to mastering, audio repair and, especially (this is my personal interest) for sound designers. The possibility to edit, remove noise and polish audio files, batch rename, fade or process so many clips, is an absolute time saver.

But what, then, about Elements? Despite the paired-down functionality compared to Pro, it is absolutely worth it for the price. Why, just thinking of the new Restore Rig, added to the other functions, it is easily justified. Elements could surely be an effective way for home studio musicians to enhance their workflow and the quality of their products with a limited, but highly professional, set of tools.

Wavelab Pro 9.5 License Key

Although both versions are impressively capable, we do have a modest wish list. We’d love to see further developments in the Restoration field. We could always use more plugins (who ever doesn’t want more plugins?). Finally, more comprehensive tutorials would be welcome in order to make the learning curve even faster, since the manual is, unsurprisingly, quite large. But don’t take that to mean we are not happy campers – we most certainly are.
