  • I am too much frustrated with it.would you please provide tutorials to export in 5.1 AAC audio with neroAAC or any other other AAC encoder. It crash too much when working on 5.1 audio or 7.1.
  • Version 2.2.1 removed Leveler and now MUTED TRACKS UN-MUTE THEMSELVES IF I SOLO ANY FOR FURTHER INSPECTION. This has not changed in 2.2.2 I could handle you removing solo-ing multiple tracks at once, but NOT the un-muting of tracks that I manually muted. They shouldn't un-mute unless I hit instruct them to, yet there they go: making a huge sound mess after I was inspecting something and working on it SO THAT I CAN ACTUALLY MIX THINGS PROPERLY. Honestly, why did you remove the actual usability of such a basic tool? Why even keep it as an option if in the end it means nothing? AT LEAST ADD AN OPTION FOR IT TO BE OF USE IN USER PREFERENCES The rest of the software is pretty much exactly as it used to be. There's really no big improvement other than visuals. Which personally idgaf about even half as much as I do about being able to actually mix.
  • Merde, investissez quelques dollars dans un designer... Parce que l'ergonomie est à chier !!! Mais sans parler d'ergonomie, vos ZOOMs, vos dépladcement dans le fichier, c'est pourri ! Connaissez-vous Soundforge ?? Merde, trouvez 10 000 $ et payez un mec capable de faire un truc ergonomique !!!
