The principal differences between the Pro and standard versions of CoolEdit were price and multichannel capability. Audition is thus a much more complex program with virtually no advantage for the sort of audio processing discussed here - at substantially higher cost. One of the minor advantages of the Pro version was the reason I bought into it and now to Audition: it offers a Bypass button on more features than does the standard software. It's not much of a difference, but when one spends as much time editing as I do, it can be enough. Mike -- [log in to unmask] http://www.mrichter.com/
