Audition is amazing, but if you’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 - I’ve got to the point where I don’t feel I need to mess around with Master sound files in an Editor if I’ve done the job properly in the DAW.

Hey thanks for this, just like @s_hamann I’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 I’m used to. Also seems to run faster than SF did.

I’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. It’s under active development though and making good progress: https://resonic.at/pro

+1 Audacity :slightly_smiling_face:

Interesting… Did you see that you can request for a 3 month trial version though, unless I’m mistaken?

I’ve had the full Adobe suite (now CC) for years through work but didn’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.

I’ve been using Amadeus for years and still happy with it.
