ocenaudio

My love for this thing has prompted me to dust off my KVR Audio login to come in here and post this.

I used to use Cool Edit Pro back in the day. Loved it. Recently I was saddened by the apparent lack of similar products--until I discovered ocenaudio. Have been using it to edit field recordings and pick out choice sections for use as drum hits, etc. This thing is fantastic.

It's light, fast, and solid.

Keyboard shortcut flexibility is fantastic.

Adjust to zero crossings and option to soften cut/delete edges are fantastic.

Navigating, scrolling, zooming works very well.

Love the browser on the left.

Love the audio filters (some crazy steep filters slopes possible).

After just a few hours of use, I'm editing audio faster than I ever have.

This is an example of focused, end-user-conscious, efficient, stable, reliable, well-presented software.

I'm heading over now to make a donation to the devs.

Big love from me.
