Track Lanes for multitrack/stems workflows Using the Track Group Editor, tracks and track groups can be named/renamed, have colors assigned and moved per drag and drop. Track Groups can be created by selecting tracks from a corresponding Group Channel. Track Groups are especially useful for stem mastering and, alongside Track Lanes, another way to apply a common track group effect chain to stem mastering projects.

This provides an additional summing stage with effects plug-ins, gain and pan controls. Track Groups comprise audio tracks which are routed to a group bus, before the signal continues through the Montage output and then Master sections.

Track Groups for multitrack/stems workflows This also allows plug-ins to process channel clusters independently of one another. In the Audio Montage, automatic splitting of multi-channel audio files into mono or stereo clusters makes it fast to import a large multi-channel file. The detailed new selection options include highly flexible frequency-domain selection in the Spectrum Editor. Featuring comprehensive controls to make precise editing easier, it’s also possible for external editors to work on selected channels only.

Supporting up to 22.2 surround layouts of WAV files (including Ambisonics files for pre-authoring purposes), a multi-channel file can be opened, edited and saved like any other set of mono/stereo files. WaveLab 11 introduces extended support for multi-channel interleaved files and, for the first time, multi-channel interleaved editing in the Audio Editor. 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. 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.
