I'm not sure what Sound Edit actually does, but the suite of mac products for music are Garageband - which allows you to plug, play and record a keyboard or guitar, as well as a host of other great editing features - Logic - which is a step up from this, Logic Pro - again, one up - and Soundtrack - which is best used for scoring films.

If you do a search for any of these products on google, you'll find tons of info and tutorials.

Several of my friends are composers and musicians, and they tend to use Garageband and graduate to Logic Pro. I'm an editor, and I sometimes whip out Soundtrack Pro to make royalty free backing tracks. All the programs are very simple to get started on, but have a lot of hidden depth.

Hope this helps

My wife has used Sound Edit 16 for years to cut music. It runs on System 9. It is very simple and >>> intuitive. She just purchased a new imac and would like to run it on native intel but it was discontinued by Macromedia in 2004. Is there a program that cuts music in a simple way like this >> program?
