Tobi v1.6, much faster audio waveform editor
Submitted by DWeck on Fri, 2011-12-23 14:54
Just in time for Christmas: Tobi now ships with a brand new waveform renderer, which displays audio pretty fast (dare I say, near-instantaneously) and incrementally loads large audio assets (i.e. dynamically, as the horizontal pane scrolls).
This is a major upgrade which ; according to our internal testing ; should really improve the user experience during authoring workflows where long audio recordings are used. The recently-introduced "split and shift" audio synchronization feature definitely benefits from the faster waveform loading. You can try by turning on "autoplay", then start playback, then incrementally hit CTRL-RETURN to split a large audio recording into smaller pieces that immediately align with the text structure.
As usual, please take a look at the more detailed change log.
Best end-of-year wishes to you all!
Kind regards, Daniel
