Using Goldwave you can take a straight copy of an LP,
auto-declick it and do a diff on the two files, leaving
20 minutes of clicks and pops which can then be added
for nostalgic effect to any CD.


Brilliant! A personalised library of one's favorite clicks and pops to
apply to those bland digitally recorded tracks.

More seriously, how does Goldwave compare with Audacity and Audition?

It's cheaper than Audition and more expensive than Audacity. All have
free versions you can download to try out.

Which is best for you depends on what you're doing and how you prefer to
work.

Audacity is basically a stereo editor which will do multitrack work at a
pinch, and Audition is a system which will let you do a multitrack
project from start to finish. They can all do sample level editing and
digital gain automation, and you can get many plugins to do things the
native programs can't do.


Thanks, I do occasionally use Audacity but, so far, not for cleaning up
files from LPs. Also have Audition. Was just wondering if Goldwave
offered much more than the others.
