HI, You are right and that's why I bought Sound Forge. John At 10:28 AM 2/24/2006, you wrote:
Studio recorder was designed for voice recording. It is a tool for book narration with good accessibility and stability.
SoundForge was designed as an editor for film sound tracks, radio work, and other specialized tasks. It has a lot of processor choices and special effects. They can both be used for basic editing, but it's like comparing apples and oranges. In my opinion, you should sit down and assess your needs. What audio tasks do you want to perform? Figure out which features you need--reverb, noise reduction, tone indexing. Are you going to edit any music?
When evaluating software, you have to know what you want to do with the tool. They are good products, but direct comparison is difficult.
Just my opinion,
Judy

Hi, I just bought Sound Forge and like it a lot. I also just heard the ACB Main Menu feature on APH's Studio Recorder. My brother is going to purchase a sound editor. For those of you with experience in using both applications, how do they compare? I know they are both accessible. Does it come down to user preference? I know the full version of sound forge is expensive, I bought the less expensive version for now. I'm currently using it for editing files. I don't have a podcast yet although I may someday. I'd be interested in opinions as to which sound editor is most blind friendly.
I know that the lite version of Sound forge is $69 and the full version is about $299. Studio recorder has only one version and its $200. Neither is cheap. Thanks for any input. John
