Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “DAWs and Audio Editing As Fast As Possible”.
Oh, ah, it’s a word. You use when you see something adorable like a box of puppies, no that’s wrong, Dawes, our digital audio workstations and in no way adorable. Unless you know you’re into that kind of thing well, either way. Moving on DAWs are used in production of basically everything from soundtracks for movies, albums, voiceovers, podcasts and so on. Much like video editing, the first audio editing involved, recording and splicing tape and unfortunately, that’s really how it stayed until the late 1970s before then, computers just didn’t have the processing power or storage speeds needed to edit audio. Then sound streams stepped in with what they called the digital editing system. It used a special mini computer running custom software package and operating system.
The system was capable of moving and crossfading between audio clips, which, for a time, was pretty dang cool and significantly easier than splicing tape. Not long after this, in the 1980s consumer computers were becoming powerful enough to run their own dawes digi designs, sound tools and sounded designer could be hooked up to a computer for editing, audio samples, and, yes, people were sampling back in the 80s. This in fact started a huge dispute over copyright laws over sampling and shortly after this major record labels all started going. Digital digit design answered this digital revolution with their legendary software Pro Tools which quickly became and is still to this day, the industry standard DAW.
This was, however, expensive, because pro tools require dedicated hardware for audio processing. It wasn’t until 1993 that a German company called Steinberg released the first da that broke away from dedicated hardware. But what kind of hardware do you need to mix and edit audio? You could have something as simple as an entry-level USB mic, like the blue Yeti connected to a computer, but studios usually have much larger, mixing consoles capable of receiving a multitude of controllable audio sources. So is there a benefit to this other than just being able to record lots of stuff at once? Of course, a recurring theme across many topics is the benefits of dedicated equipment just like having a dedicated graphics card in a computer, using a dead compressor, mic, amp or mixer makes a big difference in sound and performance. So by performance you mean moving and cutting up. Sounds right: well, almost like video editing, there’s lots of possibilities and DAWs come in tons of different flavors.
Many DAWs allow you to synthesize and create your own instruments from scratch and, in some cases, break away from the timeline editing view we are so used to Ableton Live is a perfect example, since you store your ideas and blocks and can activate them with a controller. Each button playing a different segment of your song programs, like FL studio, a well-known da for PC, allows the user to store ideas and segments in a side Bank as loops and pull them into the timeline whenever they’re needed. Then there’s programs like Pro Tools, sonar and logic, which are more closely designed to emulate analog equipment, giving the operator similar set of controls to playing a physical mixing console. Ironically, that means the industry standard.
Digital audio workstations are actually emulating the analog audio workstations that they replaced so what’s next, and should we really expect many changes in the future for audio editing? Well, that’s actually a pretty good possibility. Many smaller DAWs are moving towards modularity with third-party plugins. That are there to make the creative process easier for the producer or artist. However, with the r8 analog audio is changing, which is too slow for even a clever metaphor.
