Peak Studio LE from Bias combines the audio editing power of Peak LE 7 with additional software tools for restoration, analysis, and processing. The software offers many core features from Peak Studio, including stereo audio recording and archiving, precision sample editing, loop creation, sound design, podcasting and CD mastering.

The software can be upgraded at a later date to Peak Studio when the extra tools available in that edition are required. Otherwise Peak Studio LE delivers high-quality results at an entry-level price.
