your audio to your project. Includes new MPEG-2

ACID Loop Creation Tools
Create your own music loops for use in
ACID ® software.
Create one-shots, loops, and Beatmapped
tracks. Using the ACID Loop Creation Toolbar
you can display and edit ACID .wav file
properties including tempo and root note,
finely edit audio clips and shift selections
to get the sound you want. When you create
a loop, the information you set is embedded
in the file, so your loops will change tempo
and pitch-shift along with your ACID project.
Audio Restoration Tools
Sound Forge software automatically
scans sections of your file and marks
sample peaks that are clipping for easy
fixing. Use the Vinyl Restoration noise
reduction tool to easily remove clicks,
