http://live.pirillo.com/ – Audio editing software can be expensive, but which professional suite is better? Zoomrix from the chat room wants to know what is better: Audition or Sound Forge.

"Best" is relative to each user. If he was forced to select one or the other, Chris would take Sound Forge over Audition, because the interface is less cluttered and their new noise cancellation plug-in works much better than Auditions noise cancellation.

Also, the Audition interface really hasn’t improved much over the years: it’s too cluttered and difficult to find what you need, and still feels like it’s the old CoolEdit shareware program.

Other audio editing utilities out there include Goldwave and Audacity, but neither of them should be put into the same class as Sound Forge or Audition as they’re not professional level pieces of software; however, they’re great for the average user and most podcasters.

Which do you think is better: Audition or Sound Forge?
