I'm a podcaster who is in the process of switching platforms from the PC to Mac. I just bought a Mac Mini, which I have connected to my rig. I've purchased MegaSeg for managing playlists, but what I'm looking for now is a grown-up, non-buggy audio recording and editing program. I tried Audio Hijack Pro and Audacity and was left wanting.

I'm used to Adobe Audition (formerly Cool Edit Pro) on the PC and really want similar/identical functionality on the Mac; I like monitoring the levels/waveform during recording and being able to edit and apply effects/filters post-production.

Any suggestions?

BIAS Peak - v5 just released. You might get all you need from the LE version, but the full-fat Peak Pro version is mighty sweet. Even higher up the audio-editing food chain, the XT bundle looks mindblowingly comprehensive, but would almost certainly be overkill for your needs. But hey, if you've got the cash…

I've not actually tried Peak 5 yet, but I've been loving Peak 4 for a couple of years now. http://www.bias-inc.com

Alternatively, take a look at Sound Studio 3. I used v2 for a while and liked it well enough for editing audio. Peak's better, but Sound Studio is cheaper. I'm pretty sure Apple even bundled SS with new Macs for a while a year or two back, which might give you some idea of how highly some folk thought of it.
