At the moment I only have two criticisms of this software.

1. The instruction manual could be written a bit more clearly- often it is hard to see where in the program the subject being discussed is at.

And..

2. They need to program some tool tips into the GUI so when the user passes over buttons, there is some clue given as to what they do ( like when your mouse pointer passes over the little picture of a floppy and the word "Save" pops up in a little yellow box).

Though it did take me some time to figure out what and where some things were, I have to say I am pretty impressed over all.

If you didn't write this software...
...then don't try to use it. I've been waiting a month for any response from thier technical support. The documentation is hysterically bad. There are sections describing how to use one's mouse and what "selecting" means, and the rest of it is diabolically confused. There's never any indication of where functions being discussed are found, how to interpret the constantly shifting barrage of hybrid computer hardware/technical recording industry/made-up control name terminology, or... really, anything. It's useless. Several of the keyboard commands don't work, the icons are impossible to interpret, and there's no way to guess what parts of the intricate interface are active and which are merely display. If you have weeks and weeks of time on end, as I do at the moment, to play with it, and are masochistic, like me, then by all means purchase this product.
