Hi I'd like to purchase an easy-to-use sound recording program, and wonder if Finale list members could give me some advice, please.
I purchased a copy of Cool Edit 2000 only 2 years ago, but have twice had major computer crashes which have left me without a record of my purchase. [There's a warning there, I know!] I understand that the program is now defunct and is now marketed by Adobe as Adobe Audition, which I have been trying out. This program costs $299 USD, and looks good, but seems to sometimes conk out after 30 seconds on my computer. I have a Hewlett Packard Pavilion with Pentium 4, 2.53 ghz, 500 megs of RAM and a 60 gig HD with 250 gig backup HD. I would have thought I had enough power there. I understand I can purchase the Audition program for $169 with proof of purchase of Cool Edit, but there's the rub! Do you know of anything about the same price, or better? I only need something simple to do occasional live recording of piano and possibly a voice or solo instrument or 2. I used Cool Edit previously reasonably successfully, but the program won't let me save unless I pay for it again! Audition works, including saving, in a try before you buy version, but seems to sometimes cut out after 30 seconds, though the documentation doesn't say it is meant to. Thanks for any help you can give. David McKay [EMAIL PROTECTED] __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
