No offense to the authors of audacity, but I just find it to be a very clunky program to use. Sweep is very very similar to the program 'soundforge' on win32. It has recently been jackified thanks to Torbin Hohn (thanks Torbin!). You have to download his patches to sweep which you can find on the linux-audio-dev mailing list. Anyway, here is the link to sweep: http://www.metadecks.org/software/sweep/ Have fun! -- Levi Burton http://www.puresimplicity.net/~ldb/
