Audio Analysis
WaveLab Pro includes a comprehensive set of tools for analyzing your audio and for detecting errors.
Audio Editor Only: Global Analysis
In the Audio Editor, you can perform an advanced analysis of your audio to identify areas with specific properties. This helps you to find problem areas such as glitches or clipped samples. You can also check general information, such as the pitch of a sound.
Extra Tab (Global Analysis)
This tab shows the average DC Offset of the analyzed section and the Apparent Bit Depth.

Extra Tab (Global Analysis)

This tab shows the average DC Offset of the analyzed section and the Apparent Bit Depth.

In the Global Analysis dialog, select the Extra tab.

The Apparent Bit Depth attempts to detect the actual precision in the audio. This is useful, for example, if you want to check, whether a 24-bit file really uses 24 bits or if it was actually recorded with 16-bit precision and then expanded to 24 bits.

Note

For more accurate results on the bit depth, use the Bit Meter.
