WaveLab 7 offers exceptional tools for professional mastering purposes. The new flexible user interface with its exceptional workspace concept lets you arrange your session exactly as you need. WaveLab 7 also includes a slew of analysis tools that make it easy to detect and correct errors even when deeply hidden within the frequency spectrum of the audio material. Great features that help you to assess the mix, such as 3-D frequency analysis, phase correlation and FFT spectrum control round out the massive set of forensic audio tools.
