Error Detection Configuration Dialog

  • In the Correction tab of the Audio Editor, click Presets in the Detection section.

    If you have already saved error detection presets, click Edit to open the Error Detection Configuration dialog.

Sensitivity

Allows you to specify the sensitivity of the error detection. The higher the value, the more potential errors are detected. However, this reduces the likelihood of the reported errors being actual errors.

Note

There is a limit to the number of errors that can be reported. If you get a warning message that too many errors have been found, try a lower Sensitivity value.

Minimum Audio Level

Allows you to specify the minimum audio level that an error must have in order to be reported.

Combine Overlapping Errors

Errors can overlap with other errors and large error regions can contain smaller error regions. If Combine Overlapping Errors is activated, overlapping errors and error regions inside another error region are combined to a single error region.

Auto Apply When Changing Values

If this option is activated and you change settings in the Error Detection Configuration dialog, the error markers are automatically updated. This allows you to quickly see the effect your settings have on the error detection.

Error Types to Report

Allows you to select the types of error that you want to detect. WaveLab Pro can detect the following error types:

  • Crackle, that is, very short impulsive noise.

  • Clicks, that is, medium-sized impulsive noise.

  • Pops, that is, long impulsive noise.

  • Clipping, that is, several successive samples that have the same level.
