No, but I didn't find their website particularly accessible. I mean, it'd work if I were unlazy and used VO-h on all of their &nbsp; links, but alas. :) I've just been googling for "cocoa sound editor os x," which reveals something costing nearly $300 which is a bit beyond my budget.

I've tried SoundStudio, and it has a few capabilities, but nothing near what I was looking for. Today's task was to downmix stereo waves to mono then remix to stereo with the single channel panned off- center, a quite simple task that I couldn't seem to manage in SS because I couldn't find some sort of track selector, or some means of working with individual tracks. Someone please let me know if I missed it. Again, I dropped to sox and managed it rather easily via the command line, but I'd like to do more complex edits for Surreal Horizons audio and possible podcast-style promotions, and I don't have the patience to do that with sox. If anyone knows of anything up to the challenge of editing pre-recorded audio tracks (normalizing, cutting-and-pasting, etc.) then do let me know. Or if I've missed this in SoundStudio then do let me know as well. I'm not sure if there's something in the scrollbar in the main window that might help, if I've missed a menu option, etc.
