PodEditor

The Mac editor for podcasts and spoken word.

PodEditor is a native, Apple Silicon app built to replace Hindenburg PRO's aging Rosetta binary — a real multitrack timeline, non-destructive editing, and publishing tuned for how podcasts actually get made.

PodEditor's multitrack timeline, showing three tracks with waveforms and chapter markers
Multitrack timeline with waveforms, track headers, and chapter markers

A real multitrack timeline

Regions, waveforms drawn from precomputed peak pyramids, scroll and zoom, markers and chapters, and a fully remappable keymap. Every edit — split, trim, ripple, slip, crossfade — changes region boundaries only. The audio in the pool is never touched.

PodEditor's Welcome window, with an option to import a Hindenburg session

Import your Hindenburg sessions

Bring in .nhsx sessions, .nhvp voice profiles, and Favorites libraries. Every session in a 273-file development corpus parses with every count reconciled against the original XML — this isn't a best-effort converter.

Auto Level applied to three selected regions, each brought to a common speech level

Auto Level, calibrated on real episodes

Every region brought to a common speech level, the way Hindenburg does it — except the −21 dB target here was recovered by measuring 4,864 regions of real episode audio, not guessed. Ducking works the same way, down to the 400 ms ramp.

The export dialog, showing MP3 format, loudness normalization, a true-peak limiter, and chapter export

Publishing that gets out of your way

MP3, AAC, WAV, AIFF, FLAC, and CAF; loudness normalization with a true-peak limiter on by default; ID3v2 chapters built straight from your timeline markers. Encoding runs across every core — an hour-long episode exports in about 6 seconds.

The Clipboard panel showing a bin with a saved multi-track clip

Clipboard bins

Hindenburg's groups and multi-track clips, carried over as bins you can drag clips in and out of — plus a cross-session Favorites library for the intros, stingers, and sound effects you reuse every episode.
