« Nice small editor »
Published on 01/22/12 at 03:23Hassle-free installation!
You start the software and it works right away!!
No incompatibilities so far!
No need for a manual: It's as intuitive and stable as can be.
PERFORMANCE
Very good software (with its limitations, though).
Audio editing and (eventually) recording software, no MIDI.
Basic editing, with several details that make it very useful, like VST support, which might be a plus for the uninitiated.
OVERALL OPINION
It has nothing to envy the major players given the tons of functions it has!
The cut, copy, and paste function deserves a special attention. I use it very often and, compared to software like Cubase, it's very precise and can be used with only two mouse clicks!
As for latency, go with a more appropriate sequencer, because even with a good soundcard you can really hear it (except maybe with asio4all…etc.… but I haven't tested it yet!)
I tested it with an E-MU 1820M and an M-Audio Delta 44 via the analog input/outputs of both and a stereo/mono input/output towards Cubase, the recordings are identical, but you can hear the latency, despite the ASIO drivers of the E-MU being set to 2ms!
Bottom line: A very good software. It can be very helpful in many situations!
PS: The built-in effects aren't the best, I only use them sparingly! Use the ones on your favorite sequencer for that, they'll surely do a better job.
