Okay, I've been playing with Sony Sound Forge Audio Studio 9 and Goldwave and here are my notes concerning both and I tackle the hard question first.
Which should you buy? No doubt about the answer to that hard question, save spend the same money whatever you buy but you're certainly going to get far better value for that $60.00 or so if you purchase Goldwave. Many of the plug-ins Sound Forge Audio Studio requires you to pay extra for are already built-in to Goldwave and we're not talking say a couple or a few dollars for plug-ins here, we're talking about plug-ins that are almost worth half the price of the original Sound Forge application! A case in point is the MPG plug-in to allow you to access the audio of these video files, Goldwave uses what Windows Media provides here which makes perfect sense! Next is the fact that Goldwave is known to be far more accessible than Sound Forge Audio Studio is - even if you're not running scripts for the software -. The "Getting started" page of Sound Forge Audio Studio - whilst very welcome! is no substitute for the HTML online manual provided with Goldwave. I think I've made my point so please feel free to comment if you like but I don't think I'm missing anything. ****************************** Dane Trethowan >From Melton Victoria Australia mailto:"grtd...@internode.on.net Twitter: http://twitter.com/grtdane blog: http://www.grtdane.wordpress.com Phone United Kingdom 02032874641 Phone Australia 0390058589 Phone United States 8159261869 Fax: +61 3 9743 7954x MSN grtd...@dane-trethowan.net skype:grtdane12 ****************************** ****************************** Dane Trethowan >From Melton Victoria Australia mailto:"dane.tretho...@me.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/grtdane blog: http://www.grtdane.wordpress.com Phone United Kingdom 02032874641 Phone Australia 0390058589 Phone United States 8159261869 Fax: +61 3 9743 7954x MSN grtd...@dane-trethowan.net skype:grtdane12 ****************************** To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
