From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia :
Peak is a digital audio editing application for the Macintosh, used
primarily for stereo/mono recording, sample editing, creating loops,
and CD mastering. It is commonly used by amateur and professional
audio and video editors, mastering engineers, musicians, sound
designers, artists, educators, and hobbyists.
It was published by the now defunct company BIAS Inc. in several
editions, with varying levels of features.
Peak differs from Digital audio workstation-type audio editing
applications in that most of its editing is done directly at the file
level, without having to first create a project and import the audio
to be edited into it.
Peak can be assigned to many DAW-type applications as a supplemental
external sample editor. When used this capacity, it is similar to
having Peak's editing capabilities available as a plug-in, within the
other application.
BIAS Inc. ceased all business operations as of June, 2012.
