I'd even go so far as to say the best ever in my dealings. On another note, I do have to say Stefano's responses to support requests are absolutely amazing. This means I can't use DSP Quattro in my current mastering workflow until it's fixed. I'll probably be ceremoniously smashing the disk on the ground in a month or two, we'll seeДЄ little note on DSP Quattro, it seems I found a bug with the way it processes audio coming back from an analog chain in to a plugin that induces latency. That way I don't need to carry that PoS eLicenser dongle around. I'll probably just keep that on my studio machine and use DSP Quattro for misc editing and processing on my laptop. Not that I am overjoyed about it, but it just seemed to have the features I wanted and integration with my analog hardware that I was looking for.

Just to give everyone an update, I decided to go with Wavelab 7. I don't know enough about it to recommend yet, but we are getting along very well so far. I'm giving DSP-Quattro another try right now with version 4. Maybe that's just me coming from Soundesigner way back. The playlist system had me cursing so much, I felt like I was using MS Word. If you grab the demo, try doing something deeper like removing a long intro and extended bridge from a song. Not much change in 3 years (some would argue that's good). Great shortcuts for some things, strangely lacking for others.

It's solid and clean for trims and quick changes, and it's definitely worth a try for those interested.

I'd even been a 'high roller' with the Peak TDM version, which never had an upgrade path to anywhere (except Crashtown). Luckily (now), I bailed on Bias after version 4, being equally unimpressed with several things about the software, the 'support', and more recently, the company. WaveLab 7 requires an eLicenser for the demo, so obviously I can't properly demo that either (thumbs up Steinberg, way to go)ДЄre there any other options that people are looking at that I should look in to also? I'm pretty open at this point. I downloaded a demo of DSP Quattro but the demo apparently has I/O restrictions so I can't properly test it with my analog hardware. Wave Editor didn't seem to have all the features or workflow that I was looking for. I've kinda written off SoundBlade as well as Audiofile Engineering's Wave Editor. Support for Core Audio Format (CAF) files No USB dongle (almost a deal breaker for me) But some of my requirements are:Д®asy plugin auditioning with global bypassД®xcellent dithering and sample rate conversion I already have a good suite of DSP powered plugins as well as a good analysis suite so that isn't quite so important that it be part of the suite.

I use a combination of software and analog hardware in my mastering chain so the ability to easily integrate with external hardware is a must for me. I don't really care for WaveLab's new layout either, but if it's the best option I may just bite the bullet. At least eLicenser is nowhere near the extortion level that the iLok is. Also, the thought of an eLicenser dongle makes me want to puke since I just did a big push to remove everything iLok related from my studio.

DSP QUATTRO VS WAVELAB MAC

Not necessarily thrilled with the thought of going back to it even with the Mac version. I was a WaveLab user back in the 3.x days. I, like a few others I assume, am on the hunt for a new mastering suite. I was totally unimpressed with 7, but that's completely irrelevant now. I'd invested in it so basically I stuck with it through Peak 7, which was kind of a mistake if you ask me. I've been a Peak user for a good many years. Now that BIAS has closed up shop, I'm wondering what are other Peak users going to switch to?
