Selections can be made by time (horizontal) or frequency (vertical), or with a variety of tools, including a Lasso Tool, Selection Brush (with adjustable thickness) and even a Magic Wand Tool that selects shapes. You can even view the spectrogram in 3D from a variety of angles. It provides multiple options for altering the display’s look, letting you zoom and focus and sharpen what you’re seeing.

In the new SpectraLayers Pro 7 application for Mac and Windows, Steinberg introduces AI into this visually based audio editor, giving it some potent new powers. Over the past several years, an increasing number of software developers have included artificial intelligence algorithms in their products to give them powerful new capabilities. SpectraLayers Pro 7 is a significant update that adds potent artificial intelligence features
