 Well pluginz bad organization March 9, 2010

0 out of 2 found this review helpful
suppose you have a lot of plugins. have you try to sort them? steinberg products makes for all product-plugins a separate folder, even in the menu too!! soundforge is a complete desaster. confused all plugins. someone in folders, someone without. the effect is a long list effects and you must scroll, scroll, scroll if you choose a plugin with a name e.g. xaudio or paudio. yes, you can organize the list, but this feature seems from the last century and it is heavy work.
Now comes the kicker: if you add a new plugin, soundforge doesn't find this. you must klick fxfavorite->recreate by plugin-name and... all your laborius created and organized folders in fxfavorite are knackered. you can start your organize adventure once more. and if you install a new plugin.... enjoy the pitchfork
 Good Audio Editing Software March 2, 2010

Brought this software to edit a 20 year old personal VHS concert video. Original VHS audio recording was very poor more over was thinking of converting the video to Blu-ray. Had the audio in stereo format before getting into editing and having it converted to Dolby 5.1 format. Here are some steps to few of you who wish to edit using this software:
1. Open the stereo file.
2. Remove noices (Menu -> Tools -> Click and Crackle Removal).
3. Edit audio using graphic equilizer (Menu -> Process -> EQ - Graphic).
4. OPTIONAL - Sometimes you might need to resample depending on the output sample of 5.1 (Menu -> Resample - Resample). This stept could be opted even at a later stage.
5. Create FLFR Tack (Menu -> FX Favourites -> flfr... Choose "Taming the 60's" from Preset).
6. If required do a compression to reduce and enhance FLFR controls (Menu -> FX Favourites -> Mastering Effects Bundle2.... -> Multiband Compressor).
7. Save this FLFR file
Execute steps 1 to 4 using original stereo file. Now go to step8:
8. Create CLFE Tack (Menu -> FX Favourites -> CLFE... Choose "Taming the 60's" from Preset).
9. If required do a compression to reduce and enhance CLFE controls (Menu -> FX Favourites -> Mastering Effects Bundle2.... -> Multiband Compressor).
10. Save this CLFE file
Execute steps 1 to 4 using original stereo file. Now go to step11:
11. Create SLSR Tack (Menu -> FX Favourites -> sLsR... Choose "Taming the 60's" from Preset).
12. If required do a compression to reduce and enhance SLSR controls (Menu -> FX Favourites -> Mastering Effects Bundle2.... -> Multiband Compressor).
13. Save this SLSR file
14. Create a new file (Menu -> File -> New). Sample rate: 48,000. Bit-Depth: 16. Channels: 6 (5.1 Surround).
Copy and paste FLFR to track 1 & 2, CLFE to track 3 & 4 and SLSR to track 5 & 6. Make necessary audio levelling if required. Save in AC3 format. Now you can edit this to Blu-ray video using any video editing software like Vegas Pro or TMPGenc Authoring tool etc.
Converting cassettes to CD using Sound Forge February 28, 2010

I am using Sony Sound Forge in conjunction with a Sony RK-G136 Audio Cable and a Sony Walkman WM-FX290W to convert old cassette tapes to CDs by connecting the Walkman to my laptop.
Sound Forge makes it very easy for me to modify and improve the captured audio. You can easily change volume, equalize volume, add fades, remove areas, cut and paste portions of the audio etc. In addition, you can remove background noises such as swishes, and rumble with the built in noise reduction software. If you need to remove addition background noises then let me recommend Bias Sound Soap. This product is amazing when it comes to removing unwanted noise or sounds. I have used it to eliminate backgrounds voices which normally is nearly impossible.
Short Guide to converting a cassette tape to a CD.
First, plug in the RK-G136 cable into the headphone port on the Walkman, and the audio input port on your computer. Next, startup Sound Forge, and click on record and press play on the Walkman. Once you have captured the tape you can eliminate the long lead in by highlighting these areas and pressing delete. Now you can find an area on your audio that has noise and either use Sound Forge noise reduction or Bias Sound Soap to learn this noise and eliminate it throughout your audio. Finally, you are now ready to export your audio to a CD.
With these two software programs you can easily import, edit, cleanup and export clear, high quality audio to a CD in just a few minutes. These two products ability at removing rumble, swishing sounds, background noise, and talking is remarkable.
If you want to cleanup old cassette tapes these four products are indispensable.

I had an older version of Sony Sound Forge and it was good. This version is better. I don't do a lot of audio for professional use, but the little I do using this product makes life very easy. It does so many things and does them very well. The built in wizard is great. You can keep the wizard on top of everything and do all your steps while reading the directions in the wizard. It also steps you through procedures using bright boxes around the place where you have to click or make an entry. It is also very intuitive. If you want to do something and not use directions or the wizard, just try it and that's usually the way it works. The drag and drop is great! You save your original and work off of copies or sections of the original that you copy and paste or highlight, drag and drop.
I tried a few other, higher priced, products before purchasing this one. I am very happy. It makes recording digital audio from a disk or Analog audio from an old camcorder very easy. Nothing beats working with digital audio from flash media. I am webmaster for a church and I put the music from the Sunday service on the church web site each week. This use to be a very hard task, but since I started using Sony Sound Forge, about 3 years ago, I can put all the music, or a sermon, or a speech on the web site quickly after church.

This version of Sound Forge is very good at the kind of sound editing that I do. I especially like the batch processor since I often want to do the same things to all the tracks I am going to put on a CD.
