Need a music editor with a special non-destructive edit feature.

<< < (4/5) > >>

SiliconWizard:
Reaper has a pretty decent manual. Don't hesitate to read it.

I still use Cool Edit and Cool Edit Pro with Win XP Pro SP3 and they have that feature. You can adjust amplitude by percentage, by dB, fade in or out, etc.

I have no idea if they would run on newer versions of Windows. I run XP either directly or with VMWare.

BrianHG:
Reaper does have a flaw.  When you use 'split track' to create a transition point in volume, the transition from A to B fades completely out then back in by the media item properties' fade time settings instead of performing a morph transition from A to B by the fade in/out time settings so long as there is '0' time between the 2 adjacent tracks, or, there is some overlay.  For my use, I am ok with those fade parameters set to a time of 0 and thankfully I can make the time of 0 default as I have a lot of splits in a single track.

John B:
Just clarifying you said you had a single audio file? All the steps I mentioned would take place on a single track, with one or multiple media items in the track. No need to even split items.

Yes I know about using the envelope.  But if you look at my first post, you will see that the multiple points where I need to edit the envelope for the 2 audio level steps, A-B-A, tuning their positions after the fact is too cumbersome.  Think of it like manually editing the volume of specific or all bass drum strikes uniformity throughout a finished music piece.  Time tuning is needed to capture the bass reverb making a pleasant sound to the ear while not audibly changing the surrounding mixed in vocals and other  instruments.  Having a vertical slider which is generated with each 'split tracks' speeds up this type of editing work galore.  For envelope processing, I'm stuck with the begin and end grab points to move at the beginning, then at the end, and then making sure each of those points hit the same decibel steps, 50 to 100 times in an example song.
