Steinberg SpectraLayers Pro 13 (Mac & Windows)

Steinberg SpectraLayers Pro 13 — Edit Audio Like an Image

SpectraLayers Pro 13 is the spectral editor for people who fix audio for a living. Instead of a waveform, you work on a spectrogram: paint away a cough, lift a voice out of a crowd, rebuild missing room tone. The July 2026 update brings new AI unmixing and voice-repair tools that handle jobs no EQ ever could.

Version 13 Highlights

• Unmix Sound Effects separates one-off sounds from continuous ambience.
• Ambience Heal repairs spectral gaps with the recording’s own room tone.
• Unmix Two Voices — two speakers, no setup.
• Voice DeCrosstalk isolates the primary voice from bleed.
• Voice DeClick removes mouth noise.
• Reconstruct resynthesizes tones, transients and noise.
• Level Check — True Peak and LU loudness, live on selections.
• Attenuate, Fade, improved DeNoise, Paste tools, batch processing, saveable layouts, 100+ shortcuts.
