I'm going to try Cool edit for now but I would like to know what others are using in terms of samplers and/or software. Maybe a post-party listing of what you all are presently using would be of interest to others as well. ========= As samplers go I think Akai are easy to use and used ones are getting cheaper and cheaper. For sound editing/processing software (for the Mac), I really recommend SoundMaker, which is cheap and has a huge number of very good plugins. It's in a slightly complicated phase right now because it is in transition to become a new version of an old program called SoundEffects. I won't confuse you with more details here, except to introduce some sites with plenty of info on these programs and their plugins: http://www.micromat.com/micromat/soundmaker/soundmaker.html (the site for the soon-to be defunct SoundMaker) http://www.riccisoft.com/soundeffects/ (the site for the soon-to be reborn SoundMaker) http://members.tripod.com/~alex_yermakov (SoundFront plugins) http://www.kagi.com/mnorris/soundmagic (SoundMagic plugins) Good luck!
