New Features in Loop Editor 1.5
Speed, design, and usability refinements
Loop Editor 1.5 features many "under the hood" speed improvements (it's fast), a refined UI, a greatly improved manual activation process for computers that aren't online, updated Support, in-app Manual and more.
Extended support for CAF files
Often requested and here at last -- Loop Editor now features support for CAF files with compressed file format content.
Fully Snow Leopard compatible
Loop Editor 1.5 takes advantage of Leopard and Snow Leopard to bring you the fastest and most powerful loop editing tool available.
Power, Usability, and Simplicity
Loop editor is a simple audio loop editor. Designed in Cocoa from the ground up, Loop Editor proudly takes advantage of Quartz, CoreAudio, and other solid OS X interface features.
Loop Editor supports all audio file formats that support loop markers, including every type of looping available for any given format. Loop Editor is one of the only applications available that manages multiple loop makers (within files that support multiple loops).
Unlock the Potential
Loop Editor allows you to view and edit slices. It also sports advanced property editing capabilities. Because it handles so many more features for detailed loop editing, it's the perfect replacement for Apple Loops Utility.
Crossfades
Use Loop Editor's powerful crossfades to make your loops seamless. Enable crossfades in the Loop Inspector and you can adjust your crossfade length using the Length slider in the Inspector or the handles at the bottom of the loop markers, then adjust the curve with the Curve slider.Slice and Dice
The Slice Inspector allows you to add slices using musical notes, at divisions or using one of three powerful beta detection methods: Magnitude, Energy or Energy Bands.Support Where And When You Need It
Our Vision
Audiofile Engineering began in a recording studio, not in a corporate boardroom in an office building. As musicians and engineers who have invested blood, sweat, and tears into the world of creative audio software, we are too often surprised by an ugly truth: end-user support is seriously lacking.
From day one at Audiofile Engineering we have devoted ourselves to keeping in touch with our user base. We believe that the center of our business, and even the process of creating our software, rests within each and every one of our customers – with you. And if you run into trouble, we want to be there to help.
Not Your Parents' Help Menu
Actual, honest-to-goodness, end-user tech support is built-in to every one of our apps. Look in each application's menu for Support and check it out.
Learn more by watching our tutorial Screencasts, check for an update of the software, read Release Notes and new features, manage your License keys, or communicate with a real, living, human being on our Support staff.
The Help Desk tab is where you can let us know when you believe you've found a bug, or when you have a great idea for a future feature, and even review all past communications with the Support Team. No more digging through emails, or following links in your web browser. We've put the most important bits right at your fingertips.
We're All In This Together
We work hard to provide unparalleled technical support, and strive to keep improving our development workflow and quality control to prevent issues from happening in the first place. We utilize modern and effective tools that allow us to support you in the best way possible, no matter where in the world you are.
But we can't do it alone – we need you to stay in contact.
Tell us when you need help, let us know when things aren't working the way you expect and especially when they seem unclear. Send us your most desired feature requests, and share stories about how you are using and enjoying the software we've created. This feedback will give us what we need to continue to build and refine the most useful and enjoyable applications you've ever used.
When in doubt, just email us directly at support@audiofile-engineering.com.

Made for Mac OS X
100% Pure Cocoa
Audiofile Engineering creates unique and high-quality audio software exclusively for Mac OS X. All of our applications are written in 100% pure Cocoa and make extensive use of core technologies in Mac OS X Tiger and Leopard. Because our software is written from the ground up in Cocoa, we are able to add features and fix issues significantly faster than other developers who are supporting legacy Carbon-based applications. As Mac OS X grows, so will our applications.
All of our applications make extensive use of Core Audio, Apple's powerful audio API, for a high-quality, superior audio experience.
Wave Editor, Sample Manager & Rax fully support and make extensive use of built-in Audio Units. Your favorite plugs by Universal Audio, iZotope, Audio Damage and others are welcome here.
Apple announced the transition to Intel processors in July of 2005. Our applications were Universal Binaries in July of 2005. Coincidence? We think not.
All of our applications support Mac OS X Leopard, the most impressive and powerful version of Mac OS X yet. Apple has done it again and we plan on putting many of the new features in Leopard to good use in the very near future.
We work well with others. Sample Manager is the only audio batch processor for Mac OS X to fully support AppleScript & Automator. Wave Editor 2.0 will also add extensive AppleScript and Automator support.
A perfect illustration of the power of pure Cocoa — advanced Multicore support in Leopard. Brace yourself for even better performance on your multicore Intel Macs.
One of Sample Manager's numerous actions uploads files automatically to your iDisk. In the very near future, all of our applications will allow you to back up Keyboard Shortcuts and other important settings to your iDisk.
Whether its Sample Manager's powerful SmartGroups or standard Open dialogs, we support Spotlight to help you find exactly what you're looking for.
Optimized for the Macintosh platform, Apple's OpenGL implementation powers many of Spectre's beautiful meters.
Spectre is the first audio application for Mac OS X to make extensive use of AUNetSend/Receive. voXover's unique teleprompter is published to networked voXover clients via Bonjour. No network configuration necessary.
