Editing Audio Montages in External Editors

You can edit audio montage clips with external editors.

Prerequisite

Note

We recommend to use no clip effects when working in external editors to prevent duplicating clip effects when you insert a new clip.

You have set up any external editors in the Global Preferences.

Procedure

  1. In the Audio Montage window, select a clip or make a selection on a clip.
  2. Select the Edit tab.
  3. In the Editors section, click External Editor, and select the external editor that you want to open.
  4. In the external editor, make your edits.
  5. After editing in the external editor, you must update the clip in WaveLab Pro. This procedure depends on the external editor.

    • In SpectraLayers, select File > Replace Project Audio in WaveLab.

    • In Melodyne 4, select File > Replace Audio.

Result

If you have selected a range for editing in an external editor, the edited audio is inserted as a new audio clip. If you have selected an entire clip for editing in an external editor, the entire clip is replaced with the updated clip. The clip effects of the original clip are copied to the new clip.
