Thanks

A specific feature I need that exists on Sound Forge and that I’ve seen nowhere on any Mac audio editing tool (and I’ve tried plenty) is that of being able to, very acurately, set the tempo of some audio and then stretch it (by tempo) to a new tempo. I find this invaluable for sampling and creating loops, enabling me to very easily set a sample at the speed of any project I’m working on. Furthermore Sound Forge has an auto-regions feature which you can get to automatically set markers on every beat making extracting loops blindingly simple.

It may be that the array of audio editors available for the Mac are indeed worthy and comparable or even surpass Sound Forge in many respects, but can you tell me where else can I perform these invaluable functions?

And for what it’s worth my two pence says that overall Sound Forge is a powerful, solid and well laid out bit of software. Given all these reasons I remain disappointed it is not available on the Mac.
