Boson – Audio Recorder and Editor 1.5.5 macOS

Boson is perfect for anyone who needs to edit audio files, convert music from one format to another, record an internet radio stream, digitize a beloved vinyl collection or just make a quick voice memo

Boson supports reading, editing and writing of the most common audio file formats like mp3, mp4, ogg, flac, wav and many more.

◉ Easy to Use

Boson is easy to use. The included manual features an easy to follow introduction to audio editing and recording and the “cook book” section gives step-by-step instructions on how to perform the most common tasks (like creating a MP3 file or recording music from a website and much more).

◉ Comes With Many Built-in Audio Effects for Free

Boson comes pre-loaded with the most important audio effects. With these built-in effects you are prepared for most audio editing tasks. Of course you can also use 3rd party Audio Unit plugins with Boson.

◉ Highest Quality Possible

Boson has been designed so that you can work with your audio data without worrying to introduce any quality losses. Boson internally uses 32bit float samples to keep your data always at the highest quality possible so you can focus on the task at hand.
