Sound Grinder Pro description Download
Did you ever wish you could have a powerful editor and an advanced batch-processor in a single application? Introducing Sound Grinder Pro, the best waveform editor and batch-processor combination ever available!

Building on the success of Sound Grinder, we have created Sound Grinder Pro to meet the advanced needs of the production community. From advanced metadata and file support to the new waveform editor, you will save yourself a significant amount of time in editing and processing tasks, and with full support for both Intel and PPC processors, you can be assured that your results are fast, efficient and rock solid!

Sound Grinder Pro was also built as a companion to your DAW workstation with advanced naming, metadata processing, and drag-n-drop importing into Pro Tools or other DAW software. Try Sound Grinder Pro today and you will see how it can make a difference in your production environment!

Waveform Editing
With its efficient design, you will quickly find your way around the editor, saving time in your editing tasks. Work with fades, loops and markers with an intuitive interface. You can also edit multi-channel audio and customize the editing environment to your liking. Use the unique waveform overview to quickly navigate the audio and locate edits. Create and name regions for easy separation and exporting. Perform actions such as Normalize, Auto-Region, Auto-Trim, Apply Plugins, Change Sample Rate and much more.

Plug-in Processing
Batch-process your audio files through your favorite AU and VST plug-ins. Create a custom pipeline, preview your results before processing and create presets or Droplets to process your files with simple drag-n-drop.

High Quality MP3 including MP3 Surround
Sound Grinder Pro includes the powerful MP3 codec from Thomson/Fraunhofer. This new codec offers pristine conversion that is a must-have for audio production today. You can also create mono, stereo and 5.1 surround files in the MP3 format. In addition, we include the LAME MP3 codec for those die-hard producers to get the right compression for the job. Download the demo and hear the incredible clarity you can achieve with this new codec.

Metadata Processing
Todays content producer needs the ability to edit metadata data quickly and in large batches. To meet that need, we have included several powerfully efficient metadata tools. Copy the metadata from one file or move metadata from one tag to another, all in a single batch process.

Additional Processing
Process your files with these and many other time-saving features:
· Droplets: Create droplets for those repetitive tasks. Then simply drag and drop assets and they will be processed with your custom settings.
· Movie Preview: Preview the video track of video files, and process the audio while retaining the video track.
· Rapid Convert: Use Rapid Convert to activate the Sound Grinder Pro processing engine from the Finder, even using previously created presets.
· Process: Perform advanced file processing on your audio assets and then open them in another application. Change formats, apply normalizing, apply AU and VST plugins. Create presets for quick recall of common settings. Apply advanced naming schemes to the output files.
