Chapter 5:
Once you import media into the library, you can start editing its audio in the Edit
room. In the Edit room you can use the editing tools to crop and trim the audio, or
use the adjustment options to change audio length, pitch, apply fades, and much
more. You can also apply rich audio effects to audio to enhance it, or to achieve a
desired result.
If required, click the Edit button to begin editing, adjusting, and applying effects to
audio.
Note: the changes to the audio are not applied to the original file, as you must
produce it as a new file in the Produce window. See Producing the Audio for more

2. Click the button.

Bit depth: select the new bit depth you want the media file to have. A higher
bit depth also increases the audio quality and file size.
Channels: set the number of channels you want the media file to have. Note
that added channels are left empty, allowing you to further edit them in
CyberLink AudioDirector later.
CyberLink TrueTheater Surround: if you want to increase the number of
channels in the audio, select this option to use CyberLink TrueTheater
