WAVELAB
Master Section 10 – 241
Result
Here, you can choose whether the original wave file should be changed
(“applying” the Master Section settings) or whether a new audio file
should be generated.
Create named file
If this is activated, the resulting new file will be saved (not temporary). The
field below the checkbox allows you to specify a name and location for the
file, and you can click the audio properties button to set the desired audio
format. Clicking the “Rename as source” button will set the file name to
the same as the file being processed (but retaining any path you have
specified above).
If “Regions” is selected as the Render Range, the field normally used for
the file name is instead used to define the destination folder. Each region
must have a unique name.
Option Description
Process in place Modifies the original file. If you wish to keep the changes, you need to save
the file again. Note: if you use this for adding effects to a file, you may want
to activate the “Activate Global Bypass” option on the Schedule tab (see
below).
No tail If this is activated, the resulting file will end where the original did, even if
the processing adds material (like for example echoes or reverb tails).
Copy markers If this is ticked, the resulting new file will contain all markers present in the
original file.
Do crossfade at
boundaries/Do
fade-in/out at
boundaries
“Do crossfade at boundaries” is useful when processing in place (selec-
tion or regions), because it allows smooth transitions between the pro-
cessed/non-processed parts.
“Do fade-in/out at boundaries” is selectable when “Process in place” is
not activated. In this case, the generated files get a short fade-in at the
start, and a short fade-out at the end.
The crossfade time and shape is set in the “Default fade/crossfade” sec-
tion in the Preferences–Wave edit tab.
