Hi,

Close, but AML has a lot more features, especially the essentialFX and the ability to open the parameters of all of the effects. I don't believe that you can click on the gear and get the detailed effects dialogue in ACL, can you?

Here is what Magix says is additional in AML:

Advantages when compared to Audio Cleaning Lab:

• 4 tracks for audio editing
• Professional range editing
• Listen to Internet radio shows and use offline
• Monitor and templates for optimizing video sound
• Video Sound Optimizer for automatic sound optimization
• Video converter for all standard formats
• Six additional professional studio effects plug-ins
• Scrubbing controller for fast forwarding and rewinding at top speed
• Batch processing of several files at once
• VST 2 interface for additional plug-ins
• Share audio and video on SoundCloud, YouTube and Facebook

About the detailed dialogue boxes, look at the following:

Spectral cleaning - I don't think this is available in ACL. If you don't have recordings that require this, then fine, but if you have occasional sudden noises, like a click, pop, door closing, or something, then this is important.

You may want to determine if SFAS has everything that you need. If so, then stay with it and ACL. Otherwise, take the current offer from Magix for AML at an excellent price.
