Hi, peepholes,

Wondering what your favorite Mac OSX wave editor is?
PC has soundforge, wavelab, cooledit as the typical applications, but i don't know what quick'n'dirty options there are for the mac.

Thx,

here's my needs as far as a wave editor goes... basically, i want to import an MP3, chop off the intro, and save as a wave that describes about 80% of my wav editor uses all my music authoring is done in other software, my needs are very minimal Audacity is glitchy as hell! I hate how it won't let m...

yeah yeah yeah


my concern was that i'd like to carry as little as possible when doing a gig, i set up my ableton as a database of audio for DJing, not so much for writing new music

Jason

What's your favorite OS X wave editor?

Well, for crossfading, your cheapest / most compact bet is the evolution x-session when i see people performing between a laptop and decks, usually they keep the same tempo all the way thru for simplicity, they usually have some sort of beat coming out of the laptop at all times, and sync the record...

Yes, I saw that dea, however, is it Live 4.0, latest and greatest? Or is it some sort of a strip-down trial version?

Thanks,

Hi, Hopefully an Ableton product rep gets this message... What's the difference between Live XS, as bundled with the Evolution X-Session, and Live 4? Also, if I purchase Live XS as part of a bundle, is there a discount to upgrade to Live 4? Is there an Evolution controller (re: UC33) that ships with...
