I too am really sorry to hear about this Tom.
I told my wife, as we were building our house some years ago, (she didn't
like the look of some solution we came up with for dealing with possible
water), I told her "water is the enemy!" I had to keep repeating it
throughout the construction project.
We took some lightning damage some years ago, and lost many thousands of
dollars in electronics, but still I'd say water is the thing we do, and
should, always be concerned about. (BTW, if you haven't had a topo survey
done, I'd recommend it as being very helpful when having professionals
design water handling solutions for you).
Thanks for the info on Sound Forge; it sounds as big and messy as I
thought
it might be (no, worse!).
Would you know what's the status of using Sound Forge with a competitor's
product? I know Jeff Bishop mentioned one of the reasons he did the
WinAmp
app initially was to show Window-Eyes could do a better job of handling
accessibility/useability issues with it's new scripting model. Maybe
someone else would feel motivated by similar feelings (as well as possible
profits) to take this one on, if there's hope We could end up being a
better
platform to work with Sound Forge.
thanks.
Chip

Thanks, Tim. Yeah, a bummer indeed. And after removing about 6 feet of
clay-filled soil on 3 sides, filling it back in with rocky gravel, and
putting in about 5 miles of drainage pipes heading every which way but
loose
the damn water is still trickling in a little bit. It's amazing how
unstoppable water is. I remember the day the job was finally finished. I
was
outside chatting with the guys who did the work, with a bulldozer,
backhoe,
and 18-wheeler dump truck surrounding the place, and they said there's
absolutely no way in hell another drop of water could possibly get in.
Well,
about 2 weeks later, there it was. And so it goes.
Regards,
Tom

Just to clarify, Sound Forge is a professional audio mastering suite.
It's an audio editor like a word processor. You can cut, copy, paste,
delete, move, fade in and out, layer, and so on. But the real
processing that sets it far apart from something like Gold Wave is
that it comes right out of the box with 50 something processing
plug-ins; equalizers, compressors, gates, reverbs, and so on and so
on. And that's just what comes with it. There are endless other plug-ins
you can add.
I started scripting it ages ago. The MSAA implementation turned out to
be a huge mess that wasted a couple months of my time after I
discovered exception after exception after exception wherein it would
return bogus information. So anyone interested in scripting it, be
forewarned.
I keep thinking I'll get back to it, but my studio was destroyed in a
flood and remains as gutted and empty as it made my bank account. So I
haven't much incentive seeing as I seldom use it any more and have
other work obligations consuming my time. And I got to know it inside
and out prior to scripting anyway.
Regards,
Tom

so far, my look shows me an SDK for developing add-ons, which might
be hugely helpful for anyone who wanted to develop sound forge apps for
WE.
Is this really needed though with winamp being available? I'm not
sure if they do the same thing or not, but thought I'd ask.

Hi, sound forge pro, or studio they are quite similar though pro has
a lot more when you consider the sound processing it can do.

I thought I'd at least have a look ... but I don't know anything about
it.
Were you meaning, Sound Forge, Sound Forge Audio Studio, or Sound
Forge/pro?
