Introduction Introduction What is MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium? MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium is a gentle but powerful cleaner for all kinds of acoustic material including records, tapes, CD tracks, speech recordings and MP3s. Digital cleaning removes everything from light crackling to severe interference on scratched records, old cassettes and MP3s that have been compressed too many times.
• 24-bit Recording: The default setting for recording is CD quality (44.1 kHz sample rate, 16-bit resolution). MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium can record at higher resolutions and bit rates if the sound card supports it. • Second track: In MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium there is a second audio track which enables you to mix music with speech and other sounds. This makes it possible to include spoken commentary parallel to the other audio in a video recording.
Introduction Optimize smartphone recordings There new special presets for cleaning and optimizing smartphone recordings and a special Video Sound Optimizer effect for improving the audio tracks in smartphone videos. Note: Video functions are not available MAGIX Audio Cleaning Lab 2014. Video Integration Load videos into MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium and use the cleaning and mastering functions on the audio track.
Cleaning The key feature of MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium is its ability to remove unpleasant noise in music and enhance the overall sound. There are numerous professional tools available for this such as the "DeClicker", "DeCrackler", "DeClipper", "DeNoiser" (including DeRumbler preset), and "DeHisser". You can also add several sound effects to your music.
Quick start Quick start In this chapter, we will guide you through all of the important functions in MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium step-by-step. You don't need any special experience; just some time for recordings and hard drive space. With MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium you can load audio material from a number of different sources into projects in order to clean it up, edit it, or export it.
After import, a waveform display of the audio track appears in the main window. The waveform display gives you an idea of the audio track's progression. Even some noises can be recognized. Crackling, for example, creates a clearly identifiable peak in the waveform. Below to the right, you'll find the transport controls for playback, stop and winding. You'll be familiar with these functions from other playback devices.
Quick start • Switch to the "Cleaning" section. In the functions area at the bottom you'll find features for removing audio disturbances which are adjusted differently in the start dialog depending on your selection. The presets for the various sound sources can be found in the right column ("Presets") sorted in categories according to the source (LP, cassette etc.). The modules are "DeClicker", "DeCrackler", "DeClipper", "DeNoiser", and "DeHisser".
Click on the symbol in the bottom right hand corner to open a user interface where you can set all of the available parameters for the effect. In a way, this symbol represents the effect's engine hood. The interface located behind it was designed to simulate professional audio editing devices. Note: The advanced effect settings are not available MAGIX Audio Cleaning Lab 2014. Depending on the effect device, you can specify very effective audio editing settings here.
Quick start • Click on the "Mastering" button. Here you will also find a column with preset categories and the various effect modules on the right. The functionality of the optimization effects is the same in principle: Adjust the strength of the effect using the slider, switch the effect on and off to compare the original with the edited audio material and access the actual operation console by clicking on the symbol in the bottom right corner (not in
This will highlight the object that you want to edit. There are also many audio effects available. These effects can be set separately for every object in the master track . Remove unwanted sections Now let's take a look at some special kinds of audio noise that occur when something bangs against the microphone. These types of clicks, pops, rustling or even longer unwanted sounds can be cut out of the track by using the scissors tool in the track window.
Quick start • Select the object in the middle and delete it by pressing the "Delete" key. The back of the object automatically moves back and slightly overlaps with the front part of the object. You can use the handles to make fine adjustments to the transition. • There are handles at the top left and right hand corners, which allow you to create fade ins and outs. • The handle at the top center is for adjusting the volume. If you pull it downwards, the volume of the object is reduced.
• Zoom into that section so that you can see the details of the waveform display. You can either use the zoom button in the bottom right corner of the track window. • Take a close look. Can you see the click or pop? Look for a "mountain" that is flat on top or exceeds its surroundings. • Select the Wave Draw mode ("Options" > "Wave Draw mode"). The mouse pointer turns into a pen which you can use to draw directly into the waveform. If you click, the zoom level increases automatically and you can draw.
Quick start Export After you have "cleaned up" the material you can export it either song by song as MP3 or WAV files or all songs on the track as an audio CD. To do this, switch to the "Export" interface. If you haven't split each song on the track into a separate object, you will require track markers to specify the beginning of every new piece. Under "Tracks & Names" you have the option of checking and changing the track markers and names. There are various export options available.
Overview of the program interface This is the program interface of MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium. In MAGIX Audio Cleaning Lab 2014 it has a different coloring but works in the same way. Import: In the "Import" view you can add audio material such as audio files from you hard disk or tracks from records and tapes using the file manager. Songs can also be imported from audio CDs using the CD Import function and you can even make your own recordings with the recording function.
Overview of the program interface Project/Object: Here you can determine whether an effect will be applied to the whole project or only to a selected object. Transport control: Controls track playback. Mastering section: Here you can access the individual cleaning and mastering effects. Master volume: Here you can set the master volume of the track. The limiter prevents clipping and the auto function enables the volume to be automatically optimized.
Track window and constant control elements This chapter describes the display and control elements which are available to you independently from the selected section in MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium The master track Audio material display All of a project's audio material is displayed in the master track of the track window as a waveform. The waveform corresponds with the acoustic properties of the material.
Track window and constant control elements To move markers, simply click on them and move them with the mouse. Clicking on a marker moves the position line to that position in the project. If the position line is on a marker, it can be removed using the Del key. Overview track The overview track lets you select the project section which is displayed in the track display (displayed in blue). The track window now includes an additional overview track with a reduced display of the complete project.
Navigation The task of the transport controls is to help you navigate through the audio material in the master track. Here you can find functions that you will already now from your old tape recorder. You can get more information in the chapter Transport controls. The simplest solution, however, is to navigate directly in the track: a mouse click on the time ruler will set the starting point for the playback (even if playback is already running!) The space bar starts and stops playback.
Track window and constant control elements Zoom ranges Show all Zoom 1s Zoom 10 s Zoom 60 s Zoom 4 min Zoom 10 min A 1 0 6 4 Shift + 0 Vertical zoom Zoom into waveform Zoom out of waveform Ctrl + Cursor down Ctrl + Cursor up The entire project is visible. The visible section of the project is quickly set to the selected value. Vertically zooms in and out of the wave shape. This is useful for locating the crossover point (for precise sample editing).
Note: The second track is not available MAGIX Audio Cleaning Lab 2014. Ripple This button controls the behavior of subsequent objects when objects are deleted and moved (view page 49). Spectral View In addition to the waveform display, this button allows a spectral display of the audio material to be shown as well. Spectral display equates the X axis (horizontal) to the time dimension.
Track window and constant control elements This display also makes it easier to find sections in a song quickly, since instrumental changes can be clearly seen in the spectrum. On the other hand, the waveform display will not indicate changes if the volume level does not fluctuate. Note: Spectral view is not available in MAGIX Audio Cleaning Lab 2014. Master fader This fader sets the playback level of the track.
Buttons under the track window Markers Opens a menu with different functions to set track markers (view page 129) automatically. Undo In the project you can undo the last changes you made. This way, it's no problem if you want to try out critical operations. If you don't like the result, you can always revert to the previous state using "Undo". Shortcut: Ctrl + Z Redo The “Redo” function undoes the previous “Undo” function.
Track window and constant control elements Record: Opens the recording dialog where the format, level etc. can be set. The actual recording can be found in the import section. Loop: Display and control for playback in a loop (see Loop Playback). Controlling with the keyboard and mouse: • The spacebar starts or stops playback. • Clicking on the timeline above the track moves the position line to the corresponding position (also works during playback).
Time display The time display shows the playback position in the project. The measurement unit is the same as in the timeline and can be adjusted in the Options menu. Monitor fader The monitor fader controls the monitoring volume during playback. In contrast to the master fader (view page 31) it does not influence the volume of exported files or songs burned to CDs. Instead, it acts as a practical extension of the volume control on the sound card or on the computer speakers.
Track window and constant control elements Info Box The Info Box offers fast and immediate help when working with MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium. You can open it with the arrow button on the right side of the Cleaning and Mastering section. With the two buttons below the Infobox you can switch between the Infobox and the Analyzer Click on an effect to get information about its range of application, functionality, correct handling and possible sources of error.
The visualization display can be adapted to your personal presets. Right-click on the video monitor to open a context menu where you can set the various parameters for the display mode. In Presets you will find a range of preprogrammed settings for every display mode. Clicking on the gear icon brings you back to the display mode selection screen. Video Monitor Note: The function „Load video sound” is only available in the Premium version of MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium.
Import Import In this section audio material is imported into MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium. You can load audio files ("Files"), import tracks from audio CDs ("CD") or record audio ("LP", "Cassette", "Speech"). Files In the "Files" view you can import audio files from the hard drive or connected data storage devices into MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium. This feature works in much the same way as Windows Explorer.
CD With CDyou can import music from a CD into the program. You can import entire Audio CDs or individual CD tracks into the project. Unlike data CDs, audio CDs require special treatment while importing ("grabbing" or "ripping"). The data is imported digitally which eliminates any loss in sound quality. Track list: Tracks can be selected for import by checking the box in front of them. The box at the very top selects all the tracks.
Import File options: Here you can determine whether all of the CD tracks will be imported as a single file or each track as a separate file. In the case of separate files you can select from various file name schemes in the list field. Import: This closes the settings dialog and starts the import process. The changes to the settings will be applied to any subsequent imports. LP/Cassette/Speech recording In these views music or speech from an analog source can be recorded.
7. the right (6). You can monitor the recording level on the LED display during recording. If the display reaches the upper LEDs, clipping occurred at some point. In this case, you should definitely check the recording for clipping and, if necessary, repeat the recording using a lower recording level. At the end of the recording you will be asked if you want to use the recording. The newly-recorded material will be placed at the current position of the playback marker in the project.
Import will need a cable with two mini-stereo jacks. This type of connection has the advantage of being able to set the headphone input signal level with a separate volume. As headphone connections generally are not the best, it is advised that you use the line outputs if possible. When recording cassettes from a tape deck, you can connect the tape deck's line out directly to the sound card input.
Record pause: Pauses the recording. Click the "Pause" button again to resume. Stop: This button ends recording. Markers Automatic recording stop: If this button is activated, recording will cease automatically after approx. 16 seconds of silence. This lets you make long recordings without having to worry about stopping it once the recording is finished, e.g. recording an entire LP or cassette.
Import card is also displayed. If you are using several sound cards (or such with several inputs), then you can select one from the menu. Timer: Enter a starting time for a recording and the length of the recording. The recording won't begin immediately after pressing the "Record" button, but rather at the specified time. This way, time-delayed recordings (for example, at night or when you're out) are now possible. Of course, the system clock has to be set correctly.
If this didn't work, use the "Windows mixer" button to open the Windows Mixer and select the channel manually. Adjusting the recording level is essential when recording digitally via sound cards in order to achieve optimum sound quality. If the adjustment is set too high, distortion occurs and the incoming signal must be reduced. If you reduce input sensitivity, the resolution at which the analog signal is digitized is also reduced.
Import Digital transfer With the record function, you can also transfer digital audio data to hard disk via a digital interface (e. g. S/PDIF or ADAT). ADAT or DAT recorders usually deliver data at a sample rate of 48 kHz. For a CD project with 44.1 kHz, the sample rate therefore first has to be converted. MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium does this in realtime. The digital signal is imported at 48 kHz, converted automatically and inserted into the project at 44.1 kHz.
The functions, as well as the descriptions of the input and output controller within the Windows mixer, may differ depending on the sound card and sound card driver. Windows mixer is only a standardized "interface" for the sound card driver. Regardless of MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium, Windows and the sound card driver enable you to listen while you record.
Cutting and arranging objects Cutting and arranging objects This chapter is about working with objects and track markers. Descriptions of the individual control elements can be found further on in the „Track window“ (view page 26) chapter. What are objects? Objects provide a waveform display of audio material. The starting point of an object is assigned to an audio file. The length of the object determines the length of the part of the audio file.
The handle at the top center can be used to adjust the volume of the objects. This handle is particularly important for synchronizing the volume of songs originating from different sources. The volume of audio CDs may also differ. Fading objects in and out At the top corners of every object there are two fade handles that can be adjusted to fade an object in or out.
Cutting and arranging objects Splitting objects To remove unneeded audio material (e.g. from recordings) you can split an object into several smaller objects and delete the ones you don't want. This can be done with the function „Split objects”. Set the position line by clicking on the timeline at the position in the waveform where the object should be split. Now click on this button or press the T key to split the object. The unwanted objects can then be deleted using the delete button.
Move objects freely When objects are deleted or moved, subsequent objects are not moved in unison. Lock objects The objects (view page 47) are generally locked and cannot be moved. This option is important for video editing to prevent the audio track of the video from being moved out of sync with the images. (The audio comes too early or too late). This mode is automatically activated when videos are loaded. This option is not available in MAGIX Audio Cleaning Lab 2014.
Cutting and arranging objects The waveform display adjusts to the curve, giving you visual aid to help work out how much you need to raise specific sections. On the left side you can see that a section in the audio material is quieter than the rest, on the right this is corrected using a volume curve. There are two ways to edit these volume curves: Create a "handle" by clicking on the curve. This can be moved using the mouse to create volume progressions.
Automatic track recognition - How it works The process goes like this: MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium searches for points where a new track starts, i.e. the end of a pause. Pauses are normally 0.5 - 3 seconds long. Track markers are set automatically at the end of a pause. The second step checks to make sure the interval between the pauses is long enough. For example, it is very improbable that a recording of the Top Ten hits will contain pauses a minute long.
Cutting and arranging objects Check and move track markers Before burning the audio to CD, it is best to check and make sure that the track markers are in the right places. The Export section is helpful for this because it provides a clear list of all the track markers under "Tracks & Names". Here the markers can be adjusted, moved or even deleted. The ID3 Editor (view page 97) can be used for detailed editing of the track markers and names.
Cleaning Most cleaning functions are activated in the Cleaning FX section – either as master effects on the main screen or as object-related effects on a separate object effects page. All effects in the "Cleaning" section are applied in realtime. You can switch them on and off during playback or change their parameters and hear the results immediately. Additional cleaning functions can be found in the "Effects" menu.
Cleaning Choose preset On the left of the effect modules there is a column containing the presets. Here there are presets for specific types of cases that are organized in categories. These presets always apply to the entire page of effect modules and may be a combination of several effect modules. Under My Settings (or in the "Edit" menu) you can save and load your favorite effect settings so they can be applied to other objects or in other projects. Various presets (e.g.
The "Auto Cleaning" button opens the Cleaning Agent. This analyzes the audio material and selects the appropriate effect. Original: Plays back the audio without the suggested editing. Result: Plays back the audio with the suggested editing from the Cleaning Agent. Apply: Closes the Cleaning Agent and applies all the suggested changes. Object effects All "Project" settings effects are also available as object effects and can be applied in addition to the project effects.
Cleaning Active object effects are listed behind the object FX button on the object. In this way active object effects are identifiable even if project level effects are displayed. If you select an object, the InfoBox (view page 35) displays which object effects are active. DeClicker/DeCrackler This functions removes crackling and clicking noises which are typical on scratched records. This function can be used on objects if the clicking and crackling noises only occur in specific parts of the audio.
Marker DeClicker Along with normal crackling on a vinyl recording, there can be some more noticeable noises on a record which is scratched. If the DeClicker is set very high for those sections which are particularly noisy, it can lead to several components of the wanted signal being affected by the DeClicker if they exhibit similar characteristics as the noise.
Cleaning Get: Here you can determine the clip level automatically. Output Level: The interpolated signal peaks create a change in the master volume that must be balanced with the output level fader to avoid further distortion. Keep an eye on the peak meter to the right of the dialog when doing this. To be safe you can activate the "Limiter" which reliably prevents clipping.
Audio Type: Set the type of edited audio material here and the algorithm will be adjusted accordingly. Presets: Here you can select from various DeHisser presets. DeNoiser The DeNoiser removes persistent background noise like computer humming, hissing, noises from sound cards, disturbance from ground wires, interference from audio equipment with high-impedance outputs (e.g. turntables). Subsonic noise or rumbling can be removed effectively from LPs with the rumble filter.
Cleaning Wizard: This opens a wizard that helps to create the noise sample. The wizard mainly consists of a search function which helps you find the suitable noise sample in the audio material. Various types of noise can be selected. Save: The noise sample created can be saved in the noise sample folder. It is then available as a new noise sample in the noise sample preset list for any other project. Audio type: Set the type of edited audio material here, and the algorithm will be adjusted accordingly.
of its synthetic character. This problem, in practice, only occurs in especially difficult cases. To achieve the best possible results you should pay attention to the following hints: • First, select a preset from the selection menu. In most cases the result is satisfactory. • Be careful when "denoising" the effect: Less is more! The distortion sound should no longer be audible, otherwise artefacts may be brought about.
Mastering Mastering The mastering functions are activated in the Mastering section. Mastering effects are used for either improvement or a dedicated change of the sound of the audio. All mastering effects function in realtime which means that you can switch them on and off and change their parameters during playback and listen to the result of the changes immediately.
Now choose the musical style. MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium analyzes the audio material in the project. The settings that are used to achieve the optimal sound for a particular musical style depend on the audio properties of the source material. If the audio material in all the objects is from the same source and are similar enough in sound, the wizard will apply the appropriate effects at the project level.
Mastering The results of the Auto Mastering process can be checked in the dialog that follows. You can play back the object under the position line either with effects (result) or without effects (original). The "Back" option can be used to select a different musical style. If you are satisfied with the results, you can click on "Apply" to close the Auto Mastering wizard and finalize the process including the effects.
You can influence the basic sound of the mix by increasing and decreasing the broadband so as to give it more "depth" (lower center 200-600 Hz) or more "air" (Highs 10Khz). You can also decrease the narrowband width (high Q-value) in the frequency response to remove disruptive frequencies. Sensor field: The sensor field displays the resulting frequency response of the equalizer´. The frequency is displayed horizontally and the increase or decrease of the respective frequency is displayed vertically.
Mastering Gain: This controller allows you to raise or lower the filter. Setting the controller to 0 deactivates the filter so it does not use any CPU power. Freq: The center frequency of the individual filters can be set between 10 Hz and 24 kHz with the frequency controller. Freely choosing the frequency enables multiple filters to be set to the same frequency in order to have a greater effect. Q (Bandwidth): Here you can set the bandwidth of the individual filters to between 10 Hz and 10 kHz.
Touch-screen (right EQ-Section): This is the "sensor-field" of the EQ: Use your mouse to draw a curve that will be transferred immediately into the corresponding EQ control adjustment. Reverb/Echo The reverb effect device offers newly developed and very realistic reverb algorithms to add more room depth to your recording. Reverb is probably the most important but also the most difficult effect to generate.
Mastering Delay: This sets the period of time between the individual echoes. The more the control is turned to the left, the faster the echoes will follow each other. Feedback: This adjusts the number of echoes. Turn the dial completely to the left, there is no echo at all; turn it completely to the right and there are seemingly endless repetitions. Mix: This fader determines how much of the unprocessed original sound (dry signal) is subjected to the echo (wet signal).
Reset: This resets the effect unit to its original neutral starting point where no computing power is required and no effect is added to the sound. Enhancer The Enhancer enables the justification of the audio material in the stereo panorama to be adjusted. If the stereo recordings sound unfocused and undifferentiated, an extension of the stereo base-width can often provide better transparency. Use the maximize function to move the echo and improve the stereo picture, for example, into the foreground.
Mastering Brilliance Enhancer The Brilliance Enhancer is a high-end audio tool with which, for example, losses in high frequencies, which occur with MP3 compression or while recording older records, can be regained. In contrast to the equalizer, which only works on the currently available frequency, the brilliance enhancer calculates new harmonics and noticeably revitalizes the sound from residual material Soft: Activating this option depends upon your own perception of sound.
3. 4. 5. Open SoundCloner 2 and click on "Get Sound". The sound characteristics are now calculated. After that, the sound will be available as SOUND CLONE preset and can be stored permanently for later use by clicking "Save". Activate SoundCloner on the object you want to apply sound to and load the SOUNDCLONE preset.
Mastering Compression: This slider lets you change how much the preset's dynamic range should be adjusted. Dynamic range can only be reduced, so if the SoundClone preset has a higher dynamic range than the edited material this slider won't have any effect. Audio Type: You can choose from a range of different audio types (speech, pop music etc.) to optimize the compressor's function. Volume: The volume slider allows you to balance out any volume changes caused by the compressor.
Click on the pen icon to change back to draw mode. "Reset" resets the red filter curve to neutral, i.e. to be on a straight line with the initial position. Removing audio distortions with SoundCloner Sometimes the DeNoiser isn't the right tool for removing certain kinds of noise interference.
Mastering Link bands: When this button is activated and one fader is adjusted all faders are changed in the same ratio. The type of dynamic editing is not influenced. Limiter: MultiMax includes a limiter that prevents clipping by automatically lowering the level. Quiet parts remain unaffected. High quality: When the "High quality" setting is activated, an even more precise algorithm is used, but it also requires more processing power.
Plug-ins DirectX and VST-compatible plug-ins can be used for effects calculation in MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium. This makes it possible to use third party effects and dithering processors in addition to the effects that are already integrated into MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium. Some of the included effects are loaded as plug-ins.
Plug-ins confusing or occupies too much space on the screen. The parameter view displays eight parameters of the plugin as sliders. In the Plugin menu you can switch between these views. Load/save patch/bank: The instrument settings can be saved and loaded in the patch and bank formats typical for VST plugins (*.fxp and *.fxb respectively). Random parameters: This function can be an important source of inspiration.
A/B comparison: Very useful for trying out settings. The controller setting "A" memory is normally activated when the interface is opened. As this is the initial status, "B" also contains the same settings. If you would like to experiment without losing the current setting, press the "B" buttons and try other settings. To transfer the values to "A", press the copy button between the two letters. "?" button: This opens the online help for the plug-in.
Plug-ins Under "eFX Globals" you can find settings options for graphic level display as well as mouse control. eFX Globals These settings apply to all Essential FX. Metering: Here you can set the meter display. • Decay Time controls reaction speed. • Peak Hold controls the hold of the highest peak. • Brightness controls the display brightness. Mouse: Here you can set the display reaction to mouse movements in the essential FX graphic display.
Vocal Strip This plug-in combines several components in one special tool which is ideal for working with speech or vocal tracks. Virtually all recurring voice signal edits are integrated in a compact, simple interface. The signal flow is set by the e_FX_VocalStrip and is directly represented by the position of the fader. Vocal Strip Parameter IN / OUT: Here you can set the input and output level.
Plug-ins • DeEss DetFreq: Determines the frequency of the filter used for detection, and filter blocking in the signal route. Typically the sibilants in speech or singing voices are in the 6 - 8 kHz range. • CompAutoMakeup: The maximum level is retained while overall level is reduced. • Comp Attack: Here you can determine how fast the compressor responds after reaching the threshold. • Comp Adapt.Rel.: Rising values cause the compressor to work increasingly with "Adaptive Release".
In contrast to other devices of this type, the eFX_DeEsser works without adjustable thresholds. The plug-in constantly evaluates the input signal and recognizes signal peaks that are high above in the frequency range of the average levels. Through this comparative analysis with the wanted signal, a constant reduction of noisy sections can be adhered to, so a traditional threshold often requires adjustments for changing levels. DeEsser Parameters IN / OUT: Here you can set the input and output level.
Plug-ins The operation is similar to a classic analog gate. Here emphasis was placed on a fast and accurate response, where the typical artifacts from digital gates such as rough, "fluttering" sounds are avoided. The essential FX Gate continuously scans the signal and automatically selects optimal settings according to the current values. Gate parameter IN / OUT: Here you can set the input and output level.
• range: Here you can set the gating strength. When it is set fully to the right, the signal beneath the threshold is cut out completely. Subtly attenuating the signal can remove background noises or breathing from vocal tracks. Where necessary the process can be attenuated even further by switching on the soft knee mode. • attack: Regulates the attack time from the closed gate to the point at which signal is let through again.
Plug-ins - Stereo chorus: Compared to mono chorus, two copies of the original are created, modulated against each other in pitch, and then fed accordingly to the set mix ratio to the left and right output channel. - Mono Flanger & Stereo Flanger In contrast to the Chorus Effects the lower delay periods and a slightly changed modulation are processed. - Ensemble: This creates a denser chorus, similar to Boss/Roland CE-1: Instead of two voices, six are generated.
Optionally inside the essentialFX_TubeStage plug-in, either one or two tube stages work. Tube circuits, especially if they work in the border area and saturate/distort the signal with the gain control, react very sensitively to the input signal's spectral composition. Two independent filter circuits accompany this plug-in's tube stage (s). The first (preeq) acts directly on the input signal. With this you can determine which frequency range should be principally edited.
Plug-ins Tube Stage Parameter IN / OUT: Here you can set the input and output level. stages: In signal section 1 the signal only passes through the tube stages. In setting 2, two stages are cascaded. This divides up the gain so that both stages are driven less 'hotly'. This increases the signal complexity and any tube artifacts. class A / AB Optionally, a simple gain stage with asymmetric reference line (Class A) or symmetric AB mode.
An effect like this usually can only be partially achieved with standard methods like equalizing since an equalizer can only compile the frequency parts that are already in the signal. Additionally an excessive increase in the signal (of the highs) increases the chances of hissing. With bass the problem often arises that for each device in an analog processing chain (for example, tapedeck, mixing desk, pre-amp) slightly delays the signal compared to the remaining spectrum.
Plug-ins Low attack: Using the transient recognition fader the attack behavior of the tuned range can be increased (fader to the right) or decreased (to the left). You can use this to create a "hard" or "dynamic" bass foundation or have a range sound "legato" or "soft. Low mix: Here the processed bass signal is mixed with the unprocessed input signal. Please note that material that is already highly modulated may become overmodulated/distorted.
Analogue Modelling Suite: AM-Track SE AM-Track SE is a purely analog compressor simulation. The tape simulation contained in the full version (Analog Modeling Suite AM-Track http://pro.magix.com/de/audio-plugins/analogue-modelling-suite.175.html) is not included. This is used primarily for so-called "tracking", i.e. editing individual channel strips or subgroup signals. The compression takes place in the "vintage" setting, whereas an additional "vca" setting is available in the full version.
Plug-ins and the type of detection have a large influence on the audio results. Plenty of hardware compressors have the same established VCAs (voltage controlled amplifier), but they all sound different and influence a signal, an entire production (or even a genre) with their "signature sound". We intend to provide you with acoustic variation via these dynamic tools in the digital world.
Because of the feedback topology, the maximum gain reduction is usually lower than VCA devices with forwards detection, usually 20 dB. This way, there is almost always a level matching amplifier in the feedback loop. The "drive" controller of the AM-Track regulates the feedback amplification here. This can be so high that the detector may become saturated by a loud input signal, resulting in signal peaks being swallowed up.
Plug-ins In VCA mode, the control signal is accessed at the input where it firstly executes a controllable low-cut (which may be set up via "detector hp freq" in "Expert" mode). The filter makes sure that deep-frequency signals have less influence on the adjustment settings; this is a popular trick for more power, e.g., when using drums in a sub-group. The filtered signal then arrives at the detector.
• Threshold: The threshold above which dynamic reduction begins. • Check the threshold display if necessary (thr): If the input signal reaches the set threshold, the blue dash will move around the arrow symbols. If this dash moves upwards, the threshold is below the average level and compression is active. Inversely, if the dash moves below the marking, the input signal becomes too quiet to be able to reach the threshold; compression will be applied.
Plug-ins • Look ahead: AM-Track is always ahead of the signal. You can specify how many milliseconds you want to "look ahead". The audio signal path is delayed according to the signal route so that the detection circuit is fed first with the input signal (so-called "look-ahead delay"). You can increase the attack time and still avoid fast peaks. The latency compensation in the host program ensures that other tracks in the project are adjusted and that no time delay occurs.
Export In the export section, you can either save the project as audio file(s) or burn it directly to an audio or data CD or shared on the Internet. Tracks & Names In the "Tracks and Names" view you can check and edit the position and order of the tracks before export. The "Tracks" buttons offer quick access to Automatic track marker recognition, setting track markers on all object borders or deleting all markers.
Export Track Agent In this dialog, all the CD tracks in the current project are displayed in a list. Every track can be given a name which is then shown in the master track. The track list and the buttons underneath it are always visible. You can change the dialog view with the "Marker/Positions" and "ID3 Tags" tabs. By choosing all tracks on the list, the corresponding objects are selected and the playback position placed at the track marker.
Play/Stop: Plays or stops the selected track. Close: Closes the dialog and applies the changes that were made. Keyboard shortcut: l Markers/Positions You can edit the track markers in your project in the "Marker/Position" tab. Name: The name of the track. Set markers automatically: MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium analyzes the audio material and sets the track markers automatically. Markers on object edges: Automatically sets track markers on all object edges.
Export ID3 In the "ID3 Tags" tab you can enter information about the artist, album, year and genre. This info will be included as ID3 tags when the MP3 is exported. The data is used by database and search functions in programs like MAGIX Music Manager. Track name/artist/album/year/genre: More details about the tracks (ID3 tags). Auto-numbering: Automatically numbers the tracks. Apply to all: applies the respective entry to all tracks in the project.
Files In the "Files" view you can save the tracks from the current project as audio files. The file format, the total length of the project and the storage location are displayed here. Settings...The default setting is MP3 files with a bit rate of 192 kbps saved in the project folder (view page 138). To select a different file format or storage location, open the advanced settings (view page 100). The changes made there will be applied to all subsequent exports. Export: Starts the export process.
Export size. Unlike lossy compression methods like MP3 or OGG, the full sound quality is kept intact with FLAC. MP3: MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium contains a high-quality and extremely fast MP3 encoder. This can be used to save complete LPs including cleaning effects as MP3 files. You can also make an MP3 CD, and for that you can use the function "Burn data CD/DVD (view page 107)". For good quality, we recommend a setting of at least 192 kbps.
Variable bitrate: "Use VBR" adjusts the bitrate of the audio material, which means that a lower bitrate will be used during quieter parts. Therefore, VBR files are smaller than files of comparable quality without VBR. Instead of a constant bitrate there is a quality setting. Not all playback programs can process VBR correctly, some will result in problems during title length display or when rewinding. ID3 editor: Opens a dialog, where you can set ID3 meta data for files to be exported.
Export Change video format here. If the audio track of a video that was loaded into MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium has been edited, the format of the original will be discarded, in which case other properties of the original video will be preserved where possible. Settings...: A settings dialog (view page 103) for the selected video format will open, this dialog allows you to change the properties of the exported video.
Here you can adjust the settings for the exported video precisely. The options available vary according to the selected format. Presets: Under "Presets", you'll find typical settings for the selected format for the most important applications. Click "Save" to save your own settings and "Delete" to remove them from the list. Export settings: You can specify general export parameters like resolution, aspect ratio and frame rate.
Export Video as Quicktime Movie... Exports the project in QuickTime Movie format. This format ensures the best possible compatibility on Apple computers. Settings for video size, frame rate, and codec settings may also be specified here. The export dialog does not enable you to add comments, etc. to videos. Tip:For Quicktime files (*.mov), the Quicktime library must be installed. Video as MAGIX video Exports the project in MAGIX video format.

Keyboard shortcut: U Cut The selected object is cut out from the project and placed on the clipboard. It can then be reinserted elsewhere. Keyboard shortcut: Shift + Del Copy The selected object is copied from the project into the clipboard. It can then be reinserted elsewhere.
Remove pauses This function automatically removes sections without or with low audio level in the selected object. In the dialog, you can set a minimum time and threshold for recognition. Threshold detection for pauses (dB): The threshold is set here. The value is specified in decibels, 0db corresponds to the maximum level. Typically you will enter negative values. The higher the numerical value, the lower the level and the less audio material is removed.
Edit Menu 6. A volume curve (view page 134) is created on the second track which automatically fades the background music at the correct positions. Use the faders to set by how much the volume of the background music should be reduced during speech passages and how quickly this should happen. Use the selection list to apply the curve to the first track as well, should you have placed your background music there.
Effects menu Here you can open all the settings dialogs for the "Cleaning" and "Mastering" effects as well as other effects. The effects are sorted categorically in submenus. If the cleaning or mastering effects are open, the effect will be loaded as an object effect (view page 56), which means it will only affect the selected object and not the entire audio material on the master track.
Effects menu Normalize to: Here you can set the value to which the audio material should be normalized by entering it into the input field, moving the fader, or selecting one of the presets (50, 95, 100 or 200%). The value will be shown in % and dB (100% = 0 dB = max.). Values above 0 dB bring about digital clipping. Maximum level: Displays the highest detected peak in the selected range/object.
The degree of adjustment decides how strictly the loudness normalization is applied. At 0%, no adjustment is made to the target RMS. At a value of 50%, the level is raised to half the difference between the detected loudness and the target value. Volume differences remain between the tracks in this case. At 100%, every track is raised to the RMS target value regardless of its loudness.
Effects menu Resampling/Timestretching The pitchshifting/timestretching/resampling editor opens. This effect can change the tempo and pitch of the audio material separately. The effect is also available as a mouse mode or object effect. The dialog's advanced settings options and the pitch changing options are missing, however. Algorithm: Selects the applied timestretching process. Time factor calculation: All algorithms in this dialog apply a time factor as the input parameter.
• • • • • audible, for example, with speech, singing, or solo instruments. Problems may arise with more complex spectra (sound mixes from various instruments or finished mixes). For smaller corrections (factors approx. 0.9... 1.1), we recommend setting the smoothing level as low as possible. Beat marker slicing: Beat-synchronous timestretching and pitchshifting via splitting and temporal repositioning. Exactly set beat markers are required at the beats or transients.
CD menu CD menu The CD menu contains all special functions for audio CDs and CD mastering processes, e.g. setting CD tracks and pauses as well as the "Create CD" function. Set track marker Allows you to set a track marker at the current location of the position line. All the following markers will automatically receive a corresponding number. Each CD track needs a track marker. The minimum length for a track is 4 seconds, whereas the maximum length of a track is only limited by the capacity of the CD.
Set auto pause length Audio files that have been loaded successively into MAGIX Audio & Music Lab 2014 Premium are arranged consecutively in the project. Between the tracks, a standard pause of 2 seconds is preset. In this dialog, the value can be modified. Remove markers This function is used to delete existing markers. First put the position line at the same place as the marker (snaps to marker) Keyboard shortcut: Del Delete all markers This function removes all existing track and pause markers.
