This product is an Education product, designed for Teachers, Students and Academic Institutions. For a full breakdown of what our Education Software is and to check your eligibility, please see our full guide on Are you eligible for Education Software? for more information.
WaveLab Elements 13 is designed to make mastering approachable without sacrificing control. The updated MasterRig 2 suite is now included, bringing five dedicated processing modules for EQ, compression, saturation, stereo imaging, and limiting into a single workflow. A simple control layout lets you hear changes immediately, making it easier to refine your mix even if you're still developing your mastering skills. Alongside more than 25 mastering-grade effects, it provides everything you need to improve clarity, balance, punch, and overall consistency before publishing your music.
WaveLab Elements 13 helps speed up every stage of editing. The new Dynamic Clip Toolbar keeps clip-related controls within easy reach, reducing unnecessary menu navigation. Clip gain can be adjusted before or after effects using convenient pop-up sliders, while plug-ins can be removed simply by dragging them out of their slot. Random colour management also makes larger sessions easier to organise, helping you identify tracks quickly during busy editing sessions.
Background noise and unwanted artefacts can distract from an otherwise great performance. RestoreRig provides professional restoration tools that reduce clicks, buzz, wind noise, and other common recording issues, helping you rescue difficult audio without complicated workflows. Global Analysis automatically detects peaks for faster problem solving, while detailed editing tools, sample-level zoom, pitch shifting, time stretching, and phase inversion give you precise control when fine-tuning recordings. Magnet snap functions also help align multiple clips accurately for seamless edits.
WaveLab Elements 13 is built for more than music production. Integrated podcast and content creation tools let you record, edit, and arrange speech, music, and sound effects in one project. Automatic ducking lowers background music whenever dialogue is detected, creating a more polished listening experience with minimal effort. Once your project is complete, you can export in more than 15 popular file formats, including WAV and MP3, or publish podcasts directly to supported services while generating RSS feeds for straightforward online distribution.
