Hello,
What is the point of an audio editor?
Don't Daws work just as well as an audio editor? I've been looking at different accessible audio editors and daws and Gold Wave, Wave Pad and Audacity seem to just have destructive editing, ability to record sound and add effects. Each of the above 3 have their own nifty stand out feature (gold wave will play sounds as you arrow through a large list of sounds without you opening them, Wavepad does batch file conversion and Audacity is free with one of the best noise removal plugins out there). But when it comes down to recording and making a quality recording, Reaper, Sonar and Pro Tools seem to have the same features of the sound editors as well as midi and way more effects. Reaper is the same price as any of the sound editors and Sonar is massive with a huge library of sounds. I understand people using Audacity, but I don't understand why one would go for the $60 of the other audio editors unless their little extra features are really worth it.
Thanks,
