What's great about it: Easy to use
Sony Acid is a surprisingly easy program to use with an intuitive interface when working with audio files. Just click and drag to paint what you want, then adjust the pitch and volume to create great fades.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: apparently it can find "VSTi" plug-ins from other companies.
What's not so great: maybe something will crop up as time goes by.
Some faker picked up the Sony box and used that info to write a bum review at thus-n-so online retailer. Sony made a bone-head error by neglecting to specify "midi" as one of the export formats, as printed on the box. IT'S IN THERE!!! It exports both Type 1 and Type 0 MIDI.
Not gonna bluff you, I am a rookie, but for less than a hundred bucks, this is a great way to get an education about music making and related online issues.
There is a LOT to learn, about music, music making, and operating the program, but if you love music and "got the itch", go for it!!!
Installed fairly quick and runs great (launches fast and exits fast) on my somewhat cranky and quirky old (model year 2007) Vista PC.
I would recommend this to a friend!
