Wave Matching Window

In the Wave Matching window, you can find the best crossfade point for two adjacent clips.

  • To open the Wave Matching window, open an audio montage and select Tool Windows > Wave Matching.

On the Menu, you have the following options:

Move to Left (Match Waveform)

Scans the audio to the left of the splice point and finds the best possible phase match to avoid harmonic cancellation. The clip on the right is moved over the clip on the left. This automatically creates a short crossfade, ensuring the smoothest possible splice.

Move to Right (Match Waveform)

Scans the audio to the right of the splice point and finds the best possible phase match to avoid harmonic cancellation. The clip on the right is moved further to the right. This automatically creates a short crossfade, ensuring the smoothest possible splice. This function is useful if the two clips already overlap.

Search Range

Determines how WaveLab Pro scans the clips when searching for the best possible phase match. Higher values result in greater accuracy but also longer processing times. If the sounds contain a lot of bass, avoid the shortest search range setting.

Zoom

Sets the zoom factor. For example, 1:4 means that 1 pixel on the screen corresponds to 4 audio samples.

Automatic Level Zooming

Automatically zooms the waveform vertically to fill the view.

Show Envelope

Displays the envelope curves of the clips in the view. Which curves are displayed depends on the settings of each clip.
