I've just recently purchased a 12" powerbook and can't find the tools to do what I want. I've used Cool Edit in Windows to record the record and then to remove the clicks. This has done a pretty good job. I have Audacity to record and have the files on the computer. I can't find anything to remove the clicks.

Any suggestions?

I've just done about 20 records and went back to my PC to do it. I used Cool Edit (which cost (or used to) around $65) and an addon called Click Fix. Clickfix is a highly customizable click removal program as well has having many presets. I usually use gentle, normal, or aggressive depending on the condition of the record. This worked really well. What were left mostly (if anything) were some of the large clicks which i did remove by hand. The little I;ve played with the Peak demo, it looked like there were only 3 settings. The clickfix addon has many more, but more importantly for me, the presets work fine.

This works really really well. Problem is that Cool Edit is no longer available. Syntrillium was bought out by Adobe, and the expensive Cool Edit Pro version is relabelled as Adobe Audition -- still a great product, but unfortunately for PC only.

So I've lugged my old PC notebook home with my recorded albums to edit, and carried the Powerbook home to do other work!!!

Given changing all my records to CD precludes any removing of click by hand, I hope there's something out there somewhere!!
