hi guys, pls help me out regarding audio/wave editors

[brok landers]

i need a new audio/wave editor for win 7 x64.
i need to do multi samples with it. basically all it needs to be able to do is accurate looping and, very important - it must be able to do equal power crossfades and give me the possibility to edit the crossfade curves while auditioning.
so far i only know of wavelab that can do that. can you recommend me others?
thanks in advance for your help.

Nobody here actually knows anything, we just suggest things that we've read about in Computer Music magazine.

Wavosaur looks like it does this as far as I can tell. It has mathmatical fades, slicing and loop creation.

It's pretty deep as an editor and it's free.

Jokes yeah.
Just jokes.

not a traditional standalone audio/wave editor, but i know Ableton's Simpler & Sampler can do equal-power crossfades.

Did you look for Acon's Acoustica? They seem to have that. There is even a free entry edition and the two larger editions have very fair prices.

thanks guys, will check... though i forgot to list an important requirement - the loop info must be stored into the sample itself. so that basically rules out every sampler i know. this is, what audio/wave editors normally do. though then they mostly lack of the features i mentioned in my initial post...

Bliss sampler from discoDSP is on sale until February,
if you haven't checked it out yet, it might do some of
what you need.

Yes in Audition's multi track view you can.

the loop info must be stored into the sample itself.

Yes, in Audition you can write things as Loop Info (number of beats, tempo, key etc.) and Sampler info (loop points, MIDI unity note, fine tune cents, SMPTE Offset, etc.).

I knew the multitrack view allowed for crossfading but I did not know you could write the info to the file from that view. Excellent, thanks

No sorry, I wasn't clear. The file info for the final file can only be edited from the Edit view. If you made a crossfade between two or more files you first have to mixdown/bounce the part as one file and edit the info there. You can edit the loop and sample info in multi track view, but it's on clip level for the current session.
