DESCRIPTION

VST - Virtual Studio Technology by Steinberg - is an interface for integrating software audio synthesizers and effects plug-ins with audio editors and recording systems. VST uses digital signal processing to simulate traditional recording studio hardware through the use of software only. VST plug-ins are generally run within a digital audio workstation and provide a custom graphic user interface displaying controls similar to the physical switches and knobs on audio hardware. Thousands of plug-ins exist, both commercial and freeware, and VST is supported by a large number of audio applications (a.k.a VST host), including AV Music Morpher Gold from AVnex. A VST host is a software application or hardware device that allows VST plugins to be loaded and controlled. There are a wide range of VST-compatible hosts available; some of the most popular include Ableton Live, Cubase, FL Studio, etc. As stated above, AV Music Morpher Gold is also one of them.

INTRODUCTION

AV MUSIC MORPHER GOLD is a digital audio workstation which makes audio edits just a

snap. It is packed full of powerful features including a multi-track recorder and editor, a whole

suite of professional effects and Avnex’s famous patented vocal remover-extractor. The

program can turn your humble PC into a fully-fledged recording studio giving you the power to

make your own pop songs, funky remixes or even backing tracks quickly in the comfort of your

own home. When you've finished your masterpiece there's a ready-to-use CD burner so you

can burn your favorite songs to CD and share them with your friends.

The multi-track editor of AV Music Morpher Gold presents a non-destructive way of creating

layered sound compositions. It consists of numerous tracks, which you may fill with audio clips,

arranging them at different timeline positions. To listen to the result you do not need to mix all

the tracks down - they are played simultaneously brining the mixed sound to the output. This is

extremely convenient as you can adjust your mixes on the fly by moving the clips or adding the

new ones. You can also edit the waveform of each clip and apply the desired effects. Finally,

when you are satisfied with the result you can mix your multi-track session down to a file.

In this doccument, you will record a small voice presentation to a file, insert that file to a track,

add some background music to another track, adjust the position and the duration of both

audio clips, change the volume of your background music and finally mix all that down to a file.

***Notes:

1. AV Music Morpher Gold can be downloaded at www.audio4fun.com.

2. AV Music Morpher Gold Trial Version limits the audio converting and saving time to one minute.

3. Get AV Music Morpher Gold Trial Version Full Version to remove all limits.
