How does MAGIX Music Editor 3 work?
This process is quite easy and takes just four steps:
1.
Import: Load audio files or CDs via the corresponding buttons in the "Import" tab. Multiple files
may also be loaded into one project in MAGIX Music Editor 3. If MAGIX Music Editor 3 is
opened via another program, (function: "Edit with MAGIX Music Editor..."), then the file to be
edited is loaded automatically. For microphone, vinyl, or cassette recordings, use the "Record"
function.
2.
Edit: The master tracks allows the material to be divided, parts to be removed, and transitions
and volume curves to be inserted. There are various tools for these tasks (mouse modes).
3.
Apply effects: All of the material may be enriched with audio restoration ("Cleaning" tab) and
mastering effects ("Mastering" tab). The functions can be adjusted using the sliders or exactly set
in the effect device. The effects are immediately audible and the effect may be changed at any
time without permanently changing the source material. The "Effects" menu provides these effects
and more for immediate application to individual objects, but the result will be saved in the audio
material in this case.
4.
Export: If you are satisfied with the result of your work, then you can burn it to CD at the press
of a button without any further conversion or save the material onto the hard drive, e.g. as MP3
songs. "Save & close" saves the file and returns to the initial program after MAGIX Music Editor
3 closes.
Features
Cleaning
Remove unpleasant noise in your recordings and enrich the overall sound. To do this, there are
numerous professional tools available like the "De-clipper", "De-noiser
", and "De-hisser".
So that your recordings sound optimal, a series of mastering tools are available to you once you have
cleaned up the audio
.
You can also add a number of sound effects to your music. Resampling and timestretching help adjust the
speed and pitch of pieces so that they match, and reverb/echo adds professional reverb to your music.
Automatic Volume Adjustment
The problem with compilation CDs: The songs of different artists usually have different volume levels
because they were produced differently. A balanced compilation CD therefore needs volume adjustment
so that the volume doesn't need to be turned up or down for each song. Previously, each track had to be
adjusted by hand, but now MAGIX Music Editor 3 does it automatically.
There are two functions: The Leveler in MultiMax compresses the entire material into one uniform
volume. The function "Loudness adjustment" analyzes the actual "loudness" of all songs perceived by the
listener and adapts them to one another without changing the inner dynamics of the songs.
Volume automation curves
Use the "Volume" button to activate a volume curve. You can use it to draw volume curves onto your
audio
material, for instance, for compensating fluctuations while recording or increasing the volume of quiet
passages.
