I have Audacity, but I don't really ever use it - maybe I'm doing something wrong? Seems like I hardly ever need to do any audio editing. But anyway, yeah, Audacity is what I use, I use Audacity, etc.

nothing goes subjectively about "wavelab", but "goldwave" is seen arithmetically so well exactly...it always should from one more mathematical ;) ...cu

These suggestions are helpful, but I was also hoping someone might be able to suggest a basic wave editor that allows the setting of a root note on a file. For example, Sound Forge can do this but not Sound Forge XP. I wonder if any of the newer apps on the block (ie Audacity) have this function.

Not sure if any of the cheap editors can do that (maybe goldwave or acoustica???), but maybe its not even necessary. Many soft samplers now automatically import wav files -- just add the root note to the filename.

As macuser ( from the ice age : os9 )

Dsp-Quattro

...and a completely out-of-date one (and discontinued from ages )

Soundmaker

There are some specialised editor too ( this thread wasn't about generic program so far ,...huh !)

Amazing slow downer, Recycle, Diphone studio (well...sometimes !)


:party: :party: :party:

about why : Dsp-quattro begun as Dsound-PRO that i've been registered from 1997,

Sounmaker is still with a huge variety of effects and works extremely fast on my G4...and is absolutely stable !

And i'm well experienced with both programs, that is at least the main reason too keep on working with them

Time to upgrade your version there, mate. :wink:

You can have all kinds of wave files open, each with it's own FX chainer that you can load up and preview non destructively till such time as you deem it necessary to do otherwise.

Given that WaveLab is so incredibly expensive, I suppose this is the place to repeat the fact that you can still buy a non-upgradable version of WaveLab 3.0 from Steinberg Canada for $99 CDN.

http://www.steinbergcanada.com/shop/blowouts.html

I have not bought this, but I have been sorely tempted from time to time. It's a pretty good deal.

Anyone know of a similar sort of deal for, say, WaveLab 4.0?

Post

WaveLab 3 for 99 is VERY good.
It's what I'm using and so far I have no plans on upgrading (even if I'm entitled to), I wouldn't know for what.
