Mac Audio editor?

I love my imac, but one thing I'm missing since switching over from a decade of PC audio use, is a good audio editor.
I really miss Steinberg Wavelab and even soundforge - sensible layout, good onscreen visual monitoring and spectrum analysis, all plugins work nicely, and you can do everyhting in them from record audio to design and print your CD label. Ok so it deosn;t need to do all that but....
Audacity just feels too cheap and the interface is budget.
Bias Peak is buggy as and the monitoring options on it are dated and poor. The waveform display is about as basic as it can get.
Does anyone know of a top level audio editor for Mac? I remember hearing something about hijack??? |

Wavelab isn't available for Mac?!!! That's pretty surprising, considering that Cubase is.
What about WavePad? Never used it myself (I love SF9). |

Soundtrack Pro 2 works great for me.
http://www.apple.com/logicstudio/soundtrackpro/
It comes with Logic Studio though and it doesn't look like they also sell it seperately.
I haven't come across any others similar to Wavelab and Soundforge yet. |

| Adobe Audition is probably the best choice. |

I would happily settle for Audition, but IT"S PC ONLY!!!
Never seen that Amadeus before but it looks so similar to audacity :(
Got soundtrack pro - the interface is nice (close to wavelab/soundforge) and it has a goood input monitor and functions, but you can only make the track height about 2 inches on screen and it does not show the waveform being created as you record, which I like when recording (and both wavelab/SF do).
Wevapad? Never heard of it. Time to do some investing.
It seems like there's a real gap in the market for good audio editors on mac - it seems like the best one is Freeware!!! (audacity)
Any other suggestions? |
