Ashampoo Music Studio 12 – the 12th-gen all-in-one audio solution – from first take to finished playlist

What’s new in version 12?
This release focuses on speed and accuracy. CD detection is markedly improved and merges metadata from multiple sources automatically. For live streams and web radio, automatic track recognition cleanly splits individual songs—ideal when you want to record music without laborious manual cutting. The revamped recording manager is sortable by date, source, album or artist, keeping large collections tidy.

Workflow highlights at a glance

• Built-in ripper: import CDs with album, artist, year and cover art—perfect for CD ripping.
• Precise audio editing: zoom, markers, fades and volume matching for broadcast-ready transitions.
• Format converter: MP3, AAC, WAV, FLAC, and more—ideal to convert music and adjust bitrates.
• Cover design & burning: templates for inlays, spines and booklets; reliable disc burning included.

From first take to archiving, the interface stays deliberately straightforward. Save projects as playlists, fix metadata afterwards and find duplicates. Beginners and advanced users keep control over levels, formats and sorting—no extra tools required. Podcasters and mixtape makers benefit from chapters, normalization and batch processing; album digitizers enjoy clean filenames, complete tags and correct track numbers.

Practical time-savers

• Record music from line-in, web radio or system audio - the automatic track recognition sets accurate split points.
• Edit audio with envelopes, crossfades and noise tools for a clean master.
• Convert music for every device: from hi-res archives to space-saving MP3 libraries.
• Design covers for jewel case, booklet and label - with print guides and preview.

Whether you curate mixtapes, preserve old CDs losslessly or manage playlists, version 12 unifies core tasks in one continuous flow. The result: consistent metadata, spot-on formats and cleanly burned discs—a library you’ll love to listen to.
