[vox] sound editor recommendation
I'm looking for a sound editor for Linux (to edit sampled audio; eg WAVEs)
and nothing I've tried works:
Glame - Crashes on WAVE import
Wavesurfer - Tcl-based, requires tons of crap
DAP - Didn't seem to have any useful filters
KWave - Couldn't compile
Sweep - Buggy and no useful filters
Gnoise - Didn't seem to DO anything (like, most of the interface not
implemented or something?!)
ecawave - Based on Qt, which is having issues (antialiasing-related)
so it dies immedialtely
sox - I'd rather stab my eyeballs with red-hot needles
gears - Crashes; when it does work, no useful filters
xforge - Couldn't compile
waveforge - Crashes when I try to load a file
Name anything on freshmeat that's related to editing WAVE files, and I've
probably tried it...
This is so absolutely frustrating to me. A few of these projects look
really promising (Glame, ecawave, waveforge), but the fact that I've had
NO success with ANY of them is very discouraging.
Does anyone have any recommendations? (ie, a program you use and which works)
I've got No Starch's "Linux Music & Sound" in front of me, and thankfully
it has a whole chapter on sample editors. So tomorrow some time I'll
be trying out:
Slab
Multitrack
Mix
One of them had better work, or I swear, I'm gonna cry!!!!
