Intro to Cool Edit Pro

CoolEditPro is a piece of software which allows you to view a sound file in its digital format and then allows you to edit this wave. You can choose from which point you want to listen to the sound file or even select a specific section to play by highlighting the section.

The wave can be manipulated in various different ways such as copying, pasting and trimming the whole wave or selected parts of it. Additionally you can add other waves onto or into the file to extend it. When the wave is open it is possible to change the data about the wave being displayed on the screen such as the time, time signature or changing the scales to allow more accuracy.

It is also possible for the user to zoom in and out of the wave to allow greater detail and closer selections. Other affects available to the user are things such as reverse and invert which change the pattern of the wave and therefore how the wave sounds. The amplitude can be changed which changes the volume of the sound file and can also be faded to allow quieter sections or merges of two sounds. Other features are things such as delay, reverb, echo etc.
