Boris FX Sound Forge is a single-file waveform audio editor built for precision editing, mastering, restoration, and sound design on individual audio files, with a workflow that has stayed largely unchanged in its fundamentals since the Sonic Foundry era. Acquired by Boris FX from MAGIX in March 2026 alongside Vegas Pro and Acid Pro, it continues the same core editor, plugin chain, and batch-processing model that made it a trusted tool for decades.
Recording capability runs up to 32 channels simultaneously, with automatic trigger-based recording that starts capturing the moment an incoming signal crosses a set threshold, along with second-source audio capture for redundancy during a session. Dedicated dialogue editing tools and sound visualization make it straightforward to spot and fix problems in a waveform that would otherwise be easy to miss by ear alone.
Restoration and mastering tools cover noise reduction, click and pop removal, and finalization for release, all applied with sample-accurate precision. Customizable, repeatable functions let a sequence of edits be saved once and reapplied across multiple files, and batch processing runs that same sequence across an entire folder automatically, which matters when a project involves dozens or hundreds of individual audio assets.
Sound Forge integrates directly with Vegas Pro for editors who need single-file precision editing alongside a full timeline, and works equally well as a standalone tool alongside any other DAW for audio professionals who just need a dedicated waveform editor.
Licensing is available as a monthly or annual subscription or as a perpetual license, with a 15-day free trial requiring no credit card. Customers who owned any previous MAGIX-era version, including Sound Forge Pro 18, are eligible for a simplified single upgrade price through the Boris FX webshop.
