TwistedWave has been updated to v1.8. The main new features are the availability of a 64-bit version, automatically splitting a sound file by detecting silences, and the ability to export iPhone ringtone files.

TwistedWave 64 bit
With Mac OS 10.6, Apple has completed the transition to 64-bit computing, and it is time for TwistedWave to jump on the bandwagon. By going 64 bit, TwistedWave benefits from the ability to use a lot more memory and deliver faster performance.

Using 32-bit Audio Units is possible
TwistedWave 64 incorporates a new technology that makes it able to load 32- and 64-bit Audio Units transparently. You will not even have to know you are running a 32-bit Audio Unit with TwistedWave 64.

Silence detector
If manually cutting a long file into many different parts, and saving them as individual files looks like a big waste of your time, you will be happy to use the silence detector built in TwistedWave that allows you to do exactly that.

In just a few steps, you can detect the silences, name the different parts and export as individual files.
