Thanks very much for your reply.

Goldwave looks cool too. And I am pro Canadian.

Also, I checked out wavepad (for me the other famous free audio editor after Audacity) and found that in the free (not "master") version at least the ADPCM files of my Casio camera are not supported.

So...Goldwave may be the way to go but, since it is only about 30 dollars cheaper than the Sony solution (Sound Forge cheapo version) I think that I will go with that. I will download the trial version first to make sure that it copes with ADPCM.

Either way, if anyone knows other cheaper solutions please do contintue to post since it is a little steep that the sony audio editor is almost the same price as the sony video editor, thus almost doubling the price of the package.

I wish that there were a little bit of a discount, a package containing both editors but that does not seem to be.

In any event, Sony Vegas Movie Studio (and no doubt the pro, Vegas version) is a superb piece of software. Well done Sony!
