SpectraLayers brings something new to the mix, as it were, in the form of layers, which we'll look at shortly. Spectral audio displays are nothing new, and neither, for that matter, is spectral editing: Izotope's RX and Magix's Sequoia provide a spectral editor, and the concept of using a frequency axis for audio selection crops up in consumer-level programs like Roland's R-Mix.

The program represents audio using a multi-dimensional, spectral display, and allows it to be edited in both the time and the frequency domains. SpectraLayers Pro is a spectral audio editor published by Sony Creative Software but developed by Divide Frame, a small French company who retain its copyright. With some innovative concepts borrowed from photo-manipulation software, Sony aim to make spectral editing creative as well as useful.Īudio layers are shown in the spectral display in green, or in red if selected.
