I use Ocenaudio whenever I need to do some quick edits on a single file. Itā€™s basic but does the job and works well (for me at least): http://www.ocenaudio.com/en/whatis

if you wannaā€¦
after you get the file window set-up how you want for two track editing,
'save as
call it something like 'twotrackeditor
then just open this file, and replace the sound to whatever youā€™re working on next
ā€¦a template of sorts :slightly_smiling_face:

i use audacity specifically for these tasks. both for preparing samples before loading them into a daw or other app, and as a final step before putting completed tracks online.

Iā€™ve been using a using a demo of that (ReSample) and like it a lot. I had used Wave Editor for years but after Audiofile Engineering stopped updating/supporting it, figured I should look for something new.

I use Amadeus. Itā€™s simple and was cheap enough that I canā€™t complain :blush:

Adobe Audition 100%, but itā€™s probably only worth it if you need more features.

Features I like:

  • Spectral view alongside waveform view
  • Batch Processor
  • Waveform fx preview (the preview editor)
  • Recording of FX chains as presets (favorites)
  • Metadata editor
  • Scientific filter, FFT filter, Doppler shifter, Convolution Reverb
  • Spectral editing options (ie effecting or editing only certain frequencies)
  • Declip, Denoise, Declick
  • VST hosting

Iā€™m really loving AudioFinder. Librarian, wave editor, batch processor, etc. Top notch.

I am an old school Steinberg Wavelab guy. I use a really old version on a Windows machine. It is fantastic for mastering, authoring audio CDs etc. I used to use the montage editor option for years for editing voiceovers, it was much quicker than having to bounce the whole thing from Protools in real time.

I tried some old Mac version of it and hated it but probably theyā€™ve improved it since. The latest version looks very impressive with DDP authoring and other advanced functions but it is expensive as well.

For the basics you can almost use anything, Audacity is a good choice, I often just do simple edits inside Ableton Live. For anything deeper/more detailed I think iZotopeā€™s RX is by far the best.

iĀ“ve been using bias peak for ages.in fact iĀ“ve a dedicated computer installed with it to edit my soundfiles: clean, solid, easy and has some features i miss on some editors (the same happened to me with soundedit16ā€¦i loved that app)

bought a new computer last year, emailed earl from soundness llc, and installed peak 7 running el capistanā€¦ i followed his instructions, the app opened ok and aparently everything was fineā€¦until i opened some light-weighted fx, then peak started crashing/freezing day after dayā€¦and showing that ā€œprocessor overloadā€- like msg :cry:
anyone here using peak under el capistan or sierra successfully?

iĀ“ve tried some editors in the past, like amadeus, wave editor, etcā€¦and finally bought dsp-quattro.

ā€¦but iĀ“d like to give a try to resample

Audition is amazing, but if youā€™re not using Creative Cloud for anything else is probably a waste of money.

At the community studio we use Audacity for this kind of thing.

That said for my personal work, I usually just use Ableton Live or Logic - Iā€™ve got to the point where I donā€™t feel I need to mess around with Master sound files in an Editor if Iā€™ve done the job properly in the DAW.

Hey thanks for this, just like @s_hamann Iā€™ve been kind of adrift since sound forge 10 stopped working on windows 10. Ocenaudio is free, lightweight and is covering all the basics I need it to with similar behaviour to what Iā€™m used to. Also seems to run faster than SF did.

Iā€™ve been looking at Resonic Pro, which seems to be a more comprehensive sample librarian and editor, but hesitant to pay up for something still in alpha. Itā€™s under active development though and making good progress: https://resonic.at/pro

+1 Audacity :slightly_smiling_face:

#24

Interestingā€¦ Did you see that you can request for a 3 month trial version though, unless Iā€™m mistaken?

#25

Iā€™ve had the full Adobe suite (now CC) for years through work but didnā€™t know about Audition until this year. really like it, though as others have said, probably not worth the subscription when you could use Audacity.

Iā€™ve been using Amadeus for years and still happy with it.
