AudioSoundEditorApi.Trial 8.4.0

Audio Sound Editor API for .NET is a .NET class developed by MultiMedia Soft that makes it easy to add sound editing capabilities to Windows applications written with Microsoft Visual Studio; thanks to the integration with DirectShow codecs and with the BASS library, both allowing decoding capabilities for the most common sound formats such as MP3, WAV, Ogg Vorbis and many others, Audio Sound Editor API for .NET allows creating powerful audio editing applications.

Derived from the experience with the Audio Sound Editor for .NET Winform component, this API can be used not only for developing Winform or WPF applications but also for developing console applications, Windows services, server-side ASP.NET web applications or any other application not requiring a user interface. Thanks to COM interoperability, the API can be invoked from legacy development environments such as Visual Basic 6 and Unmanaged Visual C++ with our without MFC.

Audio Sound Editor API for .NET provides advanced features to allow an application to access and modify audio data, including the support for editing of metadata and tags.

Through Audio Sound Editor API for .NET you can not only load and edit your audio files but also creating your own sounds by composing brand new audio files from scratch through the internal sound composer which comes with support for multi-channel audio (up to 8 channels or 7.1): all sound items added to the composing session are layered, meaning that they can be added, removed and modified before composing the final mix and exporting the same into a destination file on disk.

Many tutorials are available to help you beginning your developments with this powerful control.
