what do you think of it and do you use it more like a multitrack ala cubase/sonar or an editor ala wavlab/soundforge.

which ever way you use it how do you compare it to the others listed above and how well does it work with Live?

As far as I know CoolEdit is a standalone program that can act as DX host through an optional free plug-in - no VST hosting I think - ..

It is to be compared to SoundForge and the likes as it isn't a sequencer program but a multitrack/editor environment coming into function in the postproduction phase ....

I see no direct interaction with Live whatsoever ... (see above)

CEPro is a Direct X plugin host, and uses the WDM/MME interface to talk with sound cards. I.e. no VST, no ASIO, no Rewire! It is a multitrack sound editor like Protools, Cutmaster and Samplitude, with a very advanced track (destructive) editor besides the multitrack view.

I'd strongly recommend it if you are looking for a nonlinear audio editor - it is feature packed, ergonomic, reliable, quite light on the CPU, half the price of anything comparable, and fairly widespread in broadcast environments.

But its interaction with Live is pretty much zero - it can't be Rewire'd, and even use as a sound editor in Live is a bit difficult as barely any audio interfaces permit sharing channels between between ASIO and WDM.

appreciate the info guys, Sevo what do you mean "like protools", isn't protools a program like cubase, and also what is the cut master, I have never heard of it?
