Nero Platinum

AirBurn lets you send media straight from an iOS or Android device to the desktop application for burning. Like many other products in the Nero range, Nero Platinum 2019 has support for geotagging, called "Places". That means media filmed on a smartphone, tablet or other compatible device can be organised by its location metadata. The software has also been updated with a new look and feel. The brand new launcher is now organized into five sections: "Manage & Play", "Edit & Convert", "Rip & Burn", "Backup & Rescue", and "Extras". Nero Media Browser 2019 provides easy access to your media files and with it you can arrange them according to your specific preferences. Nero Video 2019 allows you to create, edit and view your own video projects; it provides you with flexible video settings and tools, so you can create amazing video projects. Nero Recode can rip disc contents or regular audio and video files, and convert them to a particular format, to play on a certain device, or burn them to disc. Nero Burning ROM is again at the core of the package; burning CDs, DVDs or Blu-rays. With it, you can optionally encrypt your content or split it across multiple discs. If you run the suite on a dual monitor system, then you'll be able to preview your content full-screen on the second display as well. Nero Platinum 2019 also supports SecurDisc and file splitting, like other applications under the Nero brand, so you won't lose functionality if you decide to move to the Platinum edition. Nero Platinum 2019 includes cloud storage, Nero Cloud, so you can access your self-created videos and content from anywhere in the world. With other modules like Nero Express, Nero Disk to Device, Nero Cover Designer, Nero Rescue Agent and Nero BackItUp under the hood as well, you really have no need to search for other software for your multimedia management. Overall, Nero Platinum 2019 is a fully comprehensive multimedia suite. The user interface is clear and easy to navigate and the feature set is first class. It has everything you could possibly need to manage your media collection.

Nero Wave Editor

Nero is great at making professional tools accessible, without necessarily cutting features. Nero Wave Editor is an audio editing program that's comprehensive enough for amateurs, while stripping out many of the complex features that make audio editing software inaccessible. Uses Nero Wave Editor is designed for people that need to process pre-recorded audio to make it more pleasing on the ear. One typical example would be a digital recording of a vinyl record; it's rare that these recordings sound good without a little digital tweaking. Filtering lets you prune out noise and distortion, while normalisation brings the volume up to a constant level across the whole track. The effects in Nero Wave Editor also allow for some creativity, and users can download industry-standard VST plugins to expand the available methods. It's very similar to Audacity in terms of look and feel. Features Nero Wave Editor provides a healthy selection of effects that will enhance audio recordings, improve their quality and give them a more professional sheen. These effects can be combined into presents - handy if you have lots of audio recorded at the same time, which all needs similar processing. The real-time preview lets you hear what an effect will sound like without having to wait for the whole effect to be applied. Once you're done editing, save your file in its original format, or choose a different format to convert it. If your hardware didn't come with any software, you can also use Nero Wave Editor to obtain the audio from analogue line-in or a digital input, providing your computer supports it. Learning Curve Audio editing software isn't the easiest to get to grips with, but Nero Wave Editor does let you undo all changes if your edits take a wrong turn, so there's nothing wrong with experimentation.

Nero Standard 2019

Nero Standard 2019 is the slimmed down version of Nero Platinum 2019. It comes packed with many of the best features of the comprehensive Platinum edition, including all of the same mobile apps. It provides you with the ability to stream straight to Android and iOS smartphones. You can also do the reverse; send video from an Android and iOS mobile device and burn it immediately, thanks to the updated "AirBurn" feature. Like many other products in the Nero range, Nero Standard 2019 has support for geotagging, called "Places". That means media filmed on a smartphone, tablet or other compatible device can be organised by its location metadata. The software has also been updated with a new look and feel. The brand new launcher is now organized into five sections: "Manage & Play", "Edit & Convert", "Rip & Burn", "Backup & Rescue", and "Extras". The help section has also been improved in this version, with comprehensive guides to walk you through the process of managing content and completing projects. While Nero Standard 2019 is a slimmed down version of its big brother, it still has support for cloud storage in various ways. Nero BackItUp is essentially a storage service that lets you access and play back content from anywhere. Media is organised by date in MediaHome, Nero's content manager, and segmented according to media type as well. Nero Standard 2019, also houses some really cool modules. Nero Recode, for example, rips disc contents or regular audio and video files, and converts them to a particular format, to play on a certain device, or burn them to disc. Nero Burning ROM is again at the the core of the package; burning CDs, DVDs or Blu-rays. With it, you can optionally encrypt your content or split it across multiple discs. If you run the suite on a dual monitor system, then you'll be able to preview your content full-screen on the second display as well. The downside of Nero Standard 2019, is you lose the ability to play back Ultra HD (4K). Otherwise, apart from extra content and video effects and the "stashimi" recorder, the main difference between this and the Platinum suite is the price tag.

Nero Cover Designer

Once you've created your home movie or audio recording, and you've burned it to disc, you'll need a cover that looks slick and professional. Nero CoverDesigner has the tools you need to design covers, cards and cases for your media and your business - all for free. Capability Nero CoverDesigner is a desktop publishing application that ships with dozens of handy templates. Because it's a Nero product, its primary purpose is the creation of sleeves for your CDs, DVDs and Blu-Ray discs - the ones you may have already burned in another Nero application. The Nero CoverDesigner product ships with templates for most common dimensions of cases and covers, including hard plastic jewel cases and Blu-Ray boxes. Use objects and fonts from the library in your design, or choose a pre-set template to speed up the design process. The software has its own drawing tools, but unlike more general applications, some of them are geared specifically towards media design. There's even a track list builder that makes it much easier to output a neatly formatted tracklist, without the nightmare of spacing everything by eye. When you're done, cross reference your design against the overlaid grid to make sure everything is lined up as it should be. As you print, select the correct type of paper to ensure the final output is free from smudges and streaks. Added Value For a free application, Nero CoverDesigner offers plenty of versatility beyond its basic premise. The application isn't just for media cases; it comes with additional layouts for on-disc labels, business cards and sleeve note inserts. Granted, it's not a professional design tool, but it doesn't necessarily need to be. When you want to quickly create a sleeve for something, the templates are invaluable in themselves, but it's the extras that make Nero CoverDesigner well worth downloading.
