Re: Sound Editors for Windows
Hi, Tim! Thanks for the tip. Will use something other than the one yu mentioned. I have GoldWave and Sound Forge; have to learn them from scratch, as I haven't used them in a while. Also, decided to get the Sony PCM-M10, as it's likely to meet my needs for a while, and it's a recorder I can grow into as my skills working with sound improve. Would really like to take it on the go, skiing, sailing, etc., so others get a "soundscape" of my world.--Matt.

Matt, if you want to convert your albums to cd, I wouldn't recommend studio recorder. It doesn't have any noise reduction facilities kr click and pop removal while programs such as goldwave have these facilities. On Sat, 11 Dec 2010 08:58:37 -0500, Matthew Chao wrote: >Hi, All!

Re: Sound Editors for Windows
One thing I do appreciate about the Goldwave and Total Recorder packages are the amount of support users can access, in the case of Total Recorder you can go on to their web site and read primers and tutorials covering all the topics you've mentioned. In the case of Goldwave an extensive manual that covers just about everything you can think of to do with audio recording and editing is available to the user at the touch of a button, it loads into your web browser so and is well marked with links to all sections.

Re: Sound Editors for Windows
I really don't know what spoken word has to do with anything much, the question was about a sound editor and that should be able to handle exactly that, "Sound!". This brings up an interesting point, Sound Forge have a version called Sound Forge Audio Studio, that's the basic version of Sound Forge which used to be know as Sound Forge Express so I wonder if the developers of Audio Studio Recorder may consider changing the name to avoid possible confusion? .

Re: Sound Editors for Windows
Hi! Okay the following are my opinions based on my experiences on different products, in the main Total Recorder, Goldwave and Sound Forge. The best editor for the PC? Well I myself never like terming anything "the best" editor so I'll say from here on my personal favourite without a doubt is Goldwave as its the most accessible and certainly cheaper than the full version of Sound Forge, Goldwave will do most of what people expect to be done from an audio editing package, plenty of effects, a very reasonable noise reduction facility and so on not to mention a developer who has gone out of his way to provide plenty of shortcuts, accessibility etc. So with Golcwave I'd purchase Total Recorder Professional and with these two tools in your basket? Well you have a very powerful suite of sound recording and editing possibilities which are extremely easy to use and access. I used to use Sound Forge all the time, indeed and I'm a registered user of 10 but as I've continued using the software the more I've become disappointed, particularly with the Sound Forge Audio studio offering as compared to Goldwave. The fact is that accessibility for Sound Forge out of the box is next to non-existent and I don't see Sony dancing to a different tune any time soon. I notice you're looking at Amadeus Pro for the Mac? Taht too is a very good choice but still, my choice in audio editors would have to be Goldwave for the PC and I can only hope the developer does write a version for Mac, its hinted on the web site he may do so. Another great product from that site is the Ultiquence multi-track audio/video tool. On 10/12/2010, at 8:53 AM, Matthew Chao wrote: > Hi, Folks!

Hi, Folks! Am getting a new digital recorder, and would like to ask a few questions: 1. Regardless of price, what's the best sound editor for blind folks to use? 2. I happen to have a copy of Sound Forge 10. Are there any Windo-Eyes users who have worked with this package, and if so, how accessible is it?
