You will be glad to learn that the program allows you to create and customize several working spaces and switch between them with just one click.

In addition to letting you customize your mixing space according to you preferences and equipment, the program enables you to create new audio files using the desired channels and samples rates. Then again, you should know that the sample rate options are between 16,000 and 48,000, whereas the channels available are stereo and mono.

The new file can be saved in various file formats, namely FLAC, OGG, PCM, RAW, WAV, MP1, MP2 and MP3.
