Reviewing 1.3.7 Beta (Jan 28, 2009)
Amazing how the exe compresses down to 1.5 from 6.5MB. Speak english u can delete the lang folder too.

This is a great free "Poor Man's" audio editor. Has a lot of features for a free editor.
Reviewing 1.3.6 RC1 (Oct 20, 2008)
I like this app a great deal.
However, between 1.3.5 Beta and this new 1.3.6 RC1, there are some significant changes to the User Interface, from Menus to Toolbars to Default Values and Preferences.
I'm frustrated by this continual change of direction in regards to the interface, menu systems, etc. because I'm not sure if they are based on any sort of usability studies or are a result of arbitrary preferences from a rotating array of contributors to the project.
I'd also appreciate better docs and detailed changelogs.
So, even though this is a very good and free alternative, I don't feel comfortable giving it a full-on rating of 5 at this point. In fact, I'd rather give it a 3.5 than a 4, but that's not an option.
