Abstract
An audio file editing system enabling creation and editing of audio content within a single multi-layer audio file. The audio editor and method of the invention enables “layering” of audio content relative to other audio content within a single file to create a multi-layered audio file. This enables audio information to be combined in a way that keeps all content active and editable until the final product. An unlimited number of layers can be assembled within a file, constrained only by practical file size limits and system capabilities.
Claims2
An automated method of editing audio files comprising:
- providing a first audio information layer, the audio information layer being associated with audio information and a plurality of audio unit processors that enable editing and modification of the audio information in real time;
- overlaying the first audio information layer with at least a second audio information layer associated with audio information different from the audio information of the first audio information layer and a second plurality of audio unit processors;
- and
- flattening the first and second audio information layers to create a single file containing the associated audio information of the first and second audio information layers and the first and second pluralities of audio unit processors.
A digital audio editing system comprising:
- a computer system;
- and
- a document-based audio file editor that operates on the computer system, wherein the document-based audio file editor enables creation and editing of multi-layer audio files.
