Most functions are where you expect, and it is pretty easy to pick up Sound Forge Pro MAC the first time if you have had previous experience in Sound Forge Pro 10. The Plug-In Chain feature is still present and can be used with all of your plugins as well as the iZotope Restore and Repair tools that comes with SF Pro MAC. Sony Creative also hasnвЂ™t gotten rid of Pencil Mode, Regions, or the iZotope Mastering Effects Bundle. Time and Event Edit modes are still present, although hidden in a menu as opposed to selectable on the toolbar. List of plugins open on the right.ДЄll that said, parts still feel like Sound Forge. Some of these options still exist in the same menu weвЂ™re all used to, many are populated with AU plugins you already have like AppleвЂ™s AU Pitch and third-party plugins like Waves, etc. Also seemingly missing are a few of Sound Forge Pro 10вЂ™s built in Effects like Delay, Flange, Pitch, and even Wave Hammer. FLAC files, among many others including video formats). While no one will mourn the loss of Real Media 9 format no options for. Pro MAC has 13 format options whereas Pro 10 has 28.

OGG format, or many other formats for that matter. Sound Forge Pro MAC also doesnвЂ™t seem to have any way to save. While perhaps not everyone needs to save MP3вЂ™s at low-quality bit rates like I do for some Flash games Sound Forge is the program that does that for me.

The Windows version has 42 presets ranging from 20 Kbps/8,000 Hz to 320 Kbps/48,000 Hz whereas OS X version has only 11 presets ranging from 96 Kbps/44,100Hz to 320 Kbps/48,000 Hz with no customization options for anything lower than 32k sample rate and 96k bit rate. Upon reopening my progress was oddly saved.ДЄnother big difference between the two versions I noticed was in the variety (or lack thereof) in saving options. In addition I was able to get a consistent crash when simply dragging a stereo wav from Finder into waveform view on top of a mono wav (normal function I have done many times in Sound Forge Pro 10). I also noticed mono tracks are only played through one speaker which is not terribly ideal or expected.

Oddly, the same task works just fine in OS X running Sound Forge Pro 10 through Windows 7 from Parallels Desktop. I got a consistent crash on trying to play other files saved in the same manner even on reloading the entire app and file(s). wav, saved it as 44/16 and then Sound Forge would not play it, followed by multiple crashes. One issue I had was I brought in a 96/24. I have also read about the app crashing frequently, which I also experienced.

I have heard this app compared it to an Alpha version of software as opposed to release. The list of features missing from Pro MAC vs Pro 10 is quite extensive: no batch editing, no key command assigning, no crop ability, no surround output, no auto-regioning, no video support, and even a lack of editable toolbars. Be warned: Pro MAC requires OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, which may be a deal-breaker for some Snow Leopard holdouts. Also the Media Browser which by default is on the left side of the screen is cleaner and nicer than SF 10вЂ™s Explorer. While playing around with it I have access to all of my Audio Unit and VST 2вЂ™s, and there are little differences/improvements I have seen so far over SF 10 such as Fade-ins/Outs having their fade types right in the submenu is super cool (although having to go into a menu at all is tedious). It looks like an OS X application and seems to behave like one as well. (Windows version = $374.95 and OS X version = $269.95).ДЄll that said, this new MAC version does look pretty. Instead, Sound Forge Pro MAC has been touted by Sony Creative as вЂњBuilt on a clean slate for OS X, Sound Forgeв„ў Pro Mac provides a contemporary application environment thatвЂ™s perfect for recording, editing, processing, and rendering broadcast-quality audio master files.вЂќ Sound Forge Pro MAC seems to be an entirely different application than Sound Forge Pro 10, which could explain the different version numbering conventions as well as different price-points. Many Sound Forge fans (including myself) were hoping this new Mac port would be Sound Forge Pro 10 with OS X style buttons. While there have been functional audio editors on OS X for a long time: Wave Editor (now Triumph), the ill-fated BIAS Peak, Adobe Audition and even Audacity but these donвЂ™t seem to have the name recognition and user-numbers that Sound Forge has held among all audio professionals. A long time standard of most Windows-using audio professionals, Sound Forge Pro has finally come to Apple OS X.
