Software Suggestions Options

[Sneaksie]

I have been using a PC for quite some time now and i am very used to cool edit pro. however due to space limitations i am having to get rid of the PC and move over to the mac totaly.

I am searching for a program that will allow me to do what i was in cool edit pro. I mainly used the track editing features to record sounds and put effects on them. i would amas a collection of wave files then mix them together with the multitrack editor.

I have looked ta peak and deck, deck doesn't seem to import any wave files that i have already created and crashes when i load a new file that i create in peak.

I have heard good things about digitam performer 4 but i am unable to find a demo to test this software out.

i also tryed audocity(sp) but this is not what i require.

look at emagic's logic / logic express or also Digidesign's Mbox system with Pro TOols, though that is what I have and I'm not really happy with it's quality (Pro TOols crashes sometimes), features and limitiations. Digital Performer is supposed to be good too. Unfortunately none of these things have demos. On the cheap end also is Tracktion, by raw materials software. It's been getting a lot of press lately for being easy to work with and capable for only about $80.

And yeah, Audacity is more of just an audio editor - good for miscellaneous needs.

Your peak / deck problems must be some sort of file incompatibilities that, once resolved, would render those programs usable, though Deck I don't think is not as full featured as a 'real' DAW/sequencer like the ones I mentioned above.

Good luck.
