Control Window

The Control window includes controls to play, fast forward, rewind, pause, and stop playback. There are separate controls to start, stop, and pause recording. The three faders adjust playback volume, balance, and speed. Four real-time visuals are displayed. Over a dozen different visuals are included. A visual plug-in interface allows other developers to easily create new visuals for GoldWave.

Control Properties

The Control Properties window configures many features of the Control window. You can select a specific audio device, change playback looping and regions, set a date and time for recording, enable input monitoring, configure the visuals, or set playback and recording devices.
