Back in what seems another life, Goldwave was the thing.......  but then Cool Edit came along and I found that better. As you say, this morphed into Adobe Audition and it sadly lost some of the key things I used to use Cool Edit for, unless I just don't know how to do it in the newer versions.  The main one was that in Cool Edit you could press (I think) shift and a right arrow and it would auto-find the next kick or spike. That was a godsend for looping things in my view. I don't think you can do it any more.But I got used to Audition. The "Normalise to -0.1" is handy, the various "favourite" tools like "autoheal" over blips and pops is neat, nose reduction detection to sample and removal of that spectrum from the rest of the file, etc are efficient - as are the "batch convert" utilities. You can set up various things, apply some tools, specify conversion rates, etc, and, like I did, convert scores of "wav" format files to FLAC whilst I go out and get the shopping in. Audacity is okay, it gets a lot of jobs done for next to nothing, if not nothing, but despite trying it for a while, my "go to" is always Audition.</blockquote>
