Dynamically boost, attenuate, and shape sounds throughout your project with the maximum precision and level control. The multiple filter options for EQ band configuration enable significantly more precise options when editing, which allows for surgical precision in your audio tracks (as well as all tracks containing virtual instruments). 
• Achieve improved workflows using Loudness visualization - The new Loudness visualization displays the loudness of your audio files in a continuous graph in relation to the timeline and as numerical values. 

Enjoy support for EBU R 128 and ITU-R BS.1770-4 formats thanks to true-peak analysis in dbTP that can be configured using simple presets, all of which is displayed with intuitive color coding to simplify your workflow.
• Work more efficiently thanks to the optimized multichannel workflow - Enjoy significant enhancements to support for multichannel audio files. SOUND FORGE allows you to create, load and save new files with any configuration.
