SoundReplacer is a truly unique AudioSuite Plug-In that allows you to replace or mix an existing audio track with new samples from your sound library. SoundReplacer allows you to retain the original feel by matching the timing and automatically adjusting the dynamics of the replacement sound to match the changing levels of the original performance.

Variable blends
What's more, SoundReplacer lets you replace or blend up to three different samples to three different adjustable amplitude threshold zones. Variations in amplitude within the performance determine which sample is triggered at a given time. Performances can be further adjusted with a mix slider, dynamics slider and a peak align feature.

Adjusting the Mix
Blending a set of samples together is achieved through a crossfade option that mixes two or three samples with perfect transitions. If needed, the crossfade button can be disabled to create a hard shift between samples. Additionally, a mix slider will adjust how much your new samples are mixed into the original audio. A 100 percent mix will completely replace the source track with your new sample data.

Dynamics adjustments are just as effortless and even more versatile. With the dynamics button engaged, all volume changes that occur within the original performance will be applied to the new sample(s). What's more, you can subtly or dramatically expand or contract the dynamic range with the dynamics slider. Or, if you need a dead-on consistent perfor- mance, disabling the dynamics button will uniformly replace the original with the amplitude of the replacement samples. Finally, you can create that perfect drum track.

Line it Up
What about samples that don''t follow the same attack and decay shape as the source file? SoundReplacer has a Peak Align feature that provides phase-accurate alignment of the peaks in the source and replacement file. This is particularly useful for sounds that have a defined, quick transient, such as percussion or sound effects. If you want to replace or crossfade a cymbal with a reverse cymbal, Peak Align will line up the actual hit to fall right on the beat.

Enormous creative potential
Although SoundReplacer is perfect for repairing weak mixes, it also has enormous potential for sound design and post production. Sound effects designers can morph three different characteristics to a single source file, thereby adding a sense of realism to an audio track.
