Mastering is one of the most important parts of the music production process. It is a unique art and, for 25 years, WaveLab has been the number one choice for mastering professionals. WaveLab is a complete mastering solution, with every tool that you will ever need to cover your workflow from start to finish.
With the support of a global network of mastering engineers who all use it, WaveLab is the key to making every aspect of your masters truly professional.
With significant new features for stem mastering, multitrack editing, plug-in parameter automation and podcast production, WaveLab 11 has the concept of “multi” running throughout it. With improved multi-channel file handling, multiple track sub-lanes and analysis meters, multi-core processing and more, WaveLab further enhances its status as the true art of mastering.

Features:

• Multichannel support: Multichannel interleaved support for opening, editing, and saving up to 22.2 surround and Ambisonics files, with easier editing and detailed selection options.
• Stem mastering: Track groups for multitrack/stems workflows for routing audio tracks to a group bus with effects plug-ins, gain and pan controls, before the montage output and master sections. Track lanes allow for dividing an audio track into eight sub lanes for working with mix stems inside an audio montage and assembling, editing and processing sound effects from layered clips.
• Envelope automation: Parameter automation with clip envelopes for automating the parameters of VST3 plug-ins.
• Multi-metering: SuperVision analyzer provides fully-customizable, multi-metering audio analysis, with 17 different modules applied in up to nine module slots.
• Performance improvements: Audio Montage performance boost supporting multi-core processing and CPU resource conservation.
• New VST3 effect plug-ins: Including Frequency 2, Squasher, Imager, Quadrafuzz v2, DeReverb, MixConvert V6, and VST AmbiDecoder.
• WaveLab’s integrated Inspector Channel Strip: Speeds up your work dramatically. It allows you to enhance the presence of speech, give music more punch, and remove unwanted noise — just by turning a few knobs.
• Video improvements: Replace audio in video for straightforward replacement of parts or all of the audio of a video file with the audio from another track, without changing the video quality.
• New dithering: With the new MAAT LIN dithering, WaveLab replaces outdated dithering plug-ins. Developed by the mastering specialists at MAAT Audio, the new dithering plug-in delivers top-notch results and offers a plethora of settings to choose from.
• Comprehensive improvements: New montage rendering options; a revised external FX plug-in window; improved VST plug-in handling; additional master section playback processing insert slots; custom names for audio ports; batch processor enhancements and more.

With the update to version 11.1 released on June 2, 2022, the entire WaveLab family – WaveLab Pro, WaveLab Elements and WaveLab LE – became compatible with Steinberg Licensing.
