     Before AudioSnap

    After AudioSnap

    "Think of this as a toolbox of tempo-stretching, audio quantizing, and groove extracting...this powerful feature will justify the upgrade for many." —EQ

    "I can truly say I was amazed by the power of the AudioSnap feature. Being able to move beats around and to synchronize and quantize tracks to selected beats made an incredible difference in the quality and professionalism of the sound of projects after AudioSnap manipulation"—Recording

    AudioSnap™ Video Spotlight

    Watch this series of 5 video segments originally recorded for SONAR 6 with Cakewalk’s Brandon Ryan to see some of the amazing rhythmic feats you can accomplish with AudioSnap.


    Quantize Audio

    Lock an acoustic guitar into a perfect 8th note strum. Add a little shuffle to that straight drum fill. AudioSnap makes it possible to fix audio timing without slicing up or destructively editing your audio. You can quantize one part at a time or even an entire project at once.

    Hear AudioSnap add a different feel to a straight drum loop:

    Multi-track Grooves

    What if your drummer nailed the feel of a track, but your bass player isn’t quite in the pocket? Simply quantize the bass track with the nuances of the drummer’s performance—or vice versa.

    You can even select multiple tracks and quantize them in relation to each other to tighten up your entire band. AudioSnap will find the common rhythmic ground of the selected parts and lock them together perfectly.

    Hear AudioSnap tighten up a lazy rhythm section:

    In this example, rough drums and a completely out of rhythm bass line were dramatically tightened up using AudioSnap's multitrack quantize. The drums were rendered using Percussion Mode, the bass was rendered using iZotope Radius mode.

    Convert Audio Beats to MIDI

    Want to make that synth part groove perfectly with the audio you’ve recorded? Groove quantize MIDI notes with audio rhythms or even extract rhythmic MIDI information from audio and paste it into a track.

    Slip Stretch

    Fit that vocal sample, sound effect or any audio clip to a new length. Just enable Slip Stretch. Dragging the edges of a clip will non-destructively time compress or expand your audio’s duration.

    Elastic Tempo

    Have you ever wished you’d recorded or composed a song at a different tempo? Enable AudioSnap on your entire project, and simply change the tempo or draw in changes from the Tempo View. All selected audio tracks will follow project tempo.

    Sound Quality

    Whether your source material is an entire stereo mix, a percussive part, a vocal, or an orchestra, AudioSnap provides amazing sound quality even when making dramatic rhythmic edits. AudioSnap features fully-integrated iZotope Radius™ Technology for incredible audio fidelity. Visit iZotope.com for more information on Radius.

    For working with drums and other rhythmic parts, AudioSnap’s exclusive Percussion Mode keeps drums and staccato parts sounding crisp and natural—even with drastic changes to tempo.
