Added to this there is a useful new captioning tool. In the Standard Edition of the music-making software, new tools include Remix. New features in Premium include support for multi-channel audio up to Dolby Atmos 7.1.2 and adds post-production corrections ‘DeClick:Dialogue’ ‘DePlosive:Dialogue’ and the intriguing ‘DeBird’.Īnother new feature is the useful Rotate Phase which fixes asymmetry in waveforms reducing clipping and saving you some of the work of fixing it.

The simple interface has detachable windows which makes it easy to customize for different jobs and that’s lucky because Acoustica does a lot: it’s “comprehensive”, remember. It’s a clean and attractive tab-based design.

It makes Acoustica a viable alternative to Adobe Audition for those avoiding subscription fees.Īcoustica’s Remix tool performs stem division on mixed-down imported tracks (Image credit: Acon Digital) The lifetime license is particularly attractive. Premium has many bells and whistles, and full features across the board, including its Pro Tools attachment function and 32-bit capability. Standard offers good value for money, even if you only use it to foreground dialogue, clean up audio on individual sound waves, or edit video sound and caption it. If you think it’s ambitious attempting to be a “comprehensive” audio editor for a one-off purchase, you’d be right. Although Acon Digital specifies a minimum of 1GB of RAM on both platforms, they actually recommend at least 4GB RAM and 1GB free hard drive space with a high resolution monitor.

Acoustica is available in English and German for both Mac OS 10.9 or later and Windows 7 upwards with Intel Core i5 or faster recommended. Overall, the software should have no problems running on the mid-range computers and the best audio PCs.
