Brett, Hi. It may be overkill for what you want, but the Pro Audio application for this sort of thing would be Ardour. It can certainly do everything you are asking for. On the downside it's big and requires Jack, so you may not want to go there. Three other good programs you shoudl look at would be ReZound, Audacity and Sweep. All three are similar in capabilities (I think!) and probably can do the job. Of the three I I use Audacity the most, but actually think all three are quite good. Give ReZound a serious look. > > 2. What software is good for recording records and tapes and CDs? Again, all the software above can do this and more. Good luck, Mark -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
