Cooledit moved eventually to Adobe, who call it Audition, still a Windows app.
Adobe has released a demo of some new software called Soundbooth, that may be similar use.

Soundbooth requires an Intel Mac, Adobe says they will not release a PPC version.

been playing with the beta for some time.,.,.but its not out till (mid07)

so if there is any one who knows a (full) twin-like program to cool edit please let me know.......

Audacity. Free, and rather limited in functions.

And Fission. And Wave Editor.

There is a bunch of apps under the Audio section of Apple's software database.

I haven't ever played with CoolEdit, but I've used Audacity on Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X. It's been great for me, so I don't understand what you mean about it not being good because it's free (or at least the implication of such). Surely this is subjective, but Audacity being free would hardly make it not-good.

I've paid for a fair amount of software that turned out to be crap.
There's some good apps out there, that happen to be free. That's a bonus, not a penalty!
Good shareware, which often allows you unlimited use even without purchasing a license, can be some of the best available. Try before you buy! Then compensate the author because of the value to you...

I agree completely. Even with the open source stuff, a donation to the developer as a thank you for the product helps with development and also shows support. Just because it IS free, doesn't mean that you can't compensate for a job well done. At least you're not FORCED to pay for it and then end up with something that's not as good. Kind of like being swindled, no?

well i've been told...you all seem to make good sense, (sorry)

thinks i'm just a case of not giving new things a go...
