SpectraLayers gives you complete control over your audio, displaying it as visual objects.
You can explore audio, “dive” into it, extract and transform elements, performing tasks ranging from audio restoration and repair to freeform sound design.
Unrivaled selection tools developed over many years are now complemented by new AI-powered audio extraction and restoration workflows,
making this version of SpectraLayers the most significant to date.
