Sonnox Fraunhofer Pro-Codec

Audition codecs in real-time.

We spend our professional lives making mixes sound as good as they can – and then hand them on for encoding and distribution. Later we often wish we could have made some improvements.

What if there was a way to audition and compare up to **five audio codecs** in real time? Enter the Fraunhofer Pro-Codec plugin.

Its intuitive display helps you quickly focus on key issues such as codec effect on frequencies, audible artefacts and codec-induced overloads. Optimize your mix for specific formats, such as AAC or mp3, before encoding it using the plugin or the separate manager application for background batch processing.
