Audio Analyzer
This plug-in allows you to generate text files with statistics about the audio files in a batch process.
This monopass plug-in is exclusively available in the Batch Processor window.
To analyze files without writing anything, select No Audio Output via the Output tab of the Batch Processor window.

This column allows you to set up the output of the Audio Analyzer. The following options are available:
- Send Analysis Results to XML Processor
Submits the analysis results to the XML or HTML output of the batch processor as parameters.
- Create One Report per Audio File
Generates a report for each audio file in the batch process. The audio file name is used as the file name.
