Practical tools for people who record and present.

Multitrack Optimise

Smaller multitrack recordings, without losing a thing.

A digital mixer or multitrack recorder saves every channel as a WAV file of its own. An hour and a quarter of 32 channels is about 20 GB, and some of those channels usually recorded nothing at all. Multitrack Optimise listens to every track, leaves out the ones with no meaningful sound, and converts the rest to a format that takes a fraction of the space.

• Finds the silent channels for you. Unplugged inputs, spare mics that were never used and lines that only caught hum or hiss are left out automatically — with the reason for each.
• Exactly the same sound in about half the space. Apple Lossless and FLAC keep every sample identical. Need listening copies? AAC is about a tenth the size of WAV.
• You make the final call. See each track’s level at a glance, hear its loudest moment with one click, and tick anything you want kept.
• Many recordings in one go. Queue as many recordings as you like. It converts several tracks at once across your Mac’s cores, and checks there’s room before it starts.
• Leaves your originals alone. They're never changed, moved or deleted, nothing is written over, and everything happens on your Mac.

Photo Montage

Photos and music in. A polished montage out.

Choose your photos, put them in order and add a song or two. Photo Montage handles the timing, the transitions and the music fading out at the end. Play it full screen at a party, a memorial, a school night or a service, or export it as a movie to share.

• Made for the projector. Plays full screen on a projector or TV while your Mac keeps the controls — pause, scrub, or loop it as a welcome slideshow while people arrive.
• Music that lands on the last photo. Trim songs, fade them in and out, balance their volume, then Fit Photos to Music so the final photo fades as the song ends.
• 30 transitions. From a classic cross dissolve to push, cube, page curl and ripple — one style for the whole montage, or something special for a single photo.
• Quick touch-ups, never destructive. Brighten, warm up, crop and straighten. Portrait photos in a widescreen show can sit on a soft, blurred copy of themselves. Your originals are never changed.
• Any screen, any shape. Widescreen up to 4K, or square and vertical for social feeds. Export H.264, HEVC or ProRes movies for TVs, YouTube or your video editor.
