Caco, a gogo 
- Version: 1.3.1, 10/13/2005 03:20PM PST

I find Cacophony to be great with minor tweaks, adding extra verses, and taking little flaws out of music. There are plenty of features, and though there aare many sliders, that adds to the ease of use. I'd say it's not a complex PRO program, but a very useful, normal-person oriented piece of equipment.
Extremely slow

Too much hard disk usage for cache files makes it unusable with typical aiff files from music CDs. Desperately slow on my Titanium PB 400 MHz/ 256 MB RAM.

although i wish cacophony was less reliant on sliders and allowed more control, i love cacophony and how easy it is to make fine corrections in rhythm.
until i find a more advanced program that is as easy to use, i use cacophony for most of my little remixes which can be found here:
Will's Music
(the top four songs were made in cacophony)

Needs ADSR and frequency shaping - Version: 1.3, 4/7/2004 06:08AM PST

As with Amadeus, this lacks arbitrary amplitude and pitch shaping, which means that the insert noise/waveform commands serve no purpose. You cannot craete basic sound effects from scratch with this program. My 1987 copy of Farallon's SoundEdit could do that easily and more - these modern efforts could do well to copy its feature set.

A very nice editor in its own right. I really like the GUI design, very clean and ergonomic. The display features are excellent. Unfortunately, when one gets to the real meat of the editor, it falls flat. No disk based editing. No audio plug-in support (either VST or component would be sweet!). And a limited repertoire of built-in audio effects. For now I recommend Amadaeus II--but I'll keep an eye on cacophony. In a perfect world I'd slap the GUI of Cacophony onto Amadaeus II and be done with it!

it does. It's a difficult one, but to be honest requiring an Internet connection to register makes piracy MUCH harder - people can't just enter a fake serial number any more.

download things on your PC and then transfer it to your mac over CD or zip or a crossover cable or ethernet hub. The site has a registration page if you just want to register from the website. then the app doesn't have to connect to the net to register. -peace-
But I am honestly disapointed. Compared to Amadeus II (30$) it is way to expensive (yes I know you can use it free as it is Shareware).
Off_Topic: Even look at "MP3 Trimmer" (11$) which is really easy to use (intuitive workflows)
I did open a short m4a (AAC) file and changed the waveform's looking by changing the dropdown menu (left on the bottom) to "1/128" or "1/256" or 1/xxx while playing and it did sound ugly. ;-(
Why is there no view/window of the whole file beside the main zoom-in window (my file was only 1 min. of length)?
Maybee it has really good encoding technology behind the GUI - but I doubt that I'll ever gonna know this. The user Interface does just not satisfy me.
