[BC] Cool Edit and beyond

Slow is relative;  for many smaller operations, Audacity will do fine...

And running it on a faster machine can compensate partially, as well...

The big disadvantage is that it uses an internal file structure rather 
than standard codecs - so every file has to be converted twice (except 
for live recordings using Audacity as the recording application, of 
course.- those only get converted once, even if your desired output is 
.wav files.).

I run it on a 1.2 GHz Sempron, 1 GB RAM and 120 GB HD; and while not 
instantaneous, for short files like spots, it's only a very few 
seconds.  About the same, in fact, as recording the copy to reel and 
dubbing to cart....

<gasp!>  Did I just tell my age???? <grin>
