I have used the program ACID for its capability to sample vocal recordings, turn them into loops and layer them on top of eachother etc.
Now that I am going to purchase a G4, I need a substitute program. It seems that Ableton's live is the closest but does it even sample? I downloaded the demo and don't see this capability anywhere. I also want to be able to zoom into the sound waves and use the parallel of the eraser tool in ACID and delete pieces etc...I am not concerned with live performance--the program Live mainly advertises itself as such a program. I want to record in-studio and edit loop based music in-studio that is ENTIRELY made of my own samples. Where can I find this in the world of Macs? -------------------- To rhyme is a waste of time.

Thank you all for the responses. They have really helped. As far as Live is concerned, I am still confused. I have downloaded the demo and still have found no area in which to record samples, select portions of them and make loops out of them. Maybe that function is not included in the demo version. And it doesn't help that ableton doesn't respond to emails...
Phrazer seems very similar to ACID except there seems to be the same issue. I don't think it has any sampling and loop creating abilities. I do want one program that can do everything. So I will now begin to see if Logic or Cubase will do what I need them to do. -------------------- To rhyme is a waste of time.
