Done many of my design jobs in exchange for fixing the issues people were having with their Macs, as I was always pretty good at troubleshooting. Apart from the library where I was printing my layout text sheets on the LaserWriter, I was choosing my "bestest buddies" by the Macs they owned, haha. I was self-employed since 1988, working as a freelance designer and musician, completely broke all the time. Eventually someone installed PageMaker 3 on one of those, and I was hooked. So I found my way around the Mac by trial and error. I said no, and so I was advised to try the Mac first. The first time I came there I was asked if I already have some computer experience. … but that's exactly where I found myself in 1989 as well! The university library in Berne, Switzerland, used to have a few IBMs and three SE30 and a LaserWriter in the reading room, and you could register as a user even as a non-student. Mac SE30, Aldus PageMaker and an early Apple PostScript Printer But hat doesn't mean that bugs and issues shouldn't be documented, does it? ) So as far as RX8 Elements goes, I'm in it primarily for spectrogram editing and everything else is just the icing on the cake. RX8 AUDIO EDITOR PROSo for just $29, it was a no-brainer, as it's going to replace the "antique" and ultimately obsolete Soundtrack Pro spectrogram editor that I got with the Logic Studio 9 suite. You can choose which version you want to demo, and so I was surprised that even the Elements can do that, albeit with a few minor limitations. At first I thought that the spectrogram editor is only in the Standard edition which is over my budget, but I downloaded the demo nonetheless. A fellow user then recommended to have a look at RX8. Amadeus already has an excellent spectrogram renderer – either from a file or directly from an audio stream – which is part of my audio workflow since over a decade. Neither had I, but a week ago I asked on the Amadeus Pro forum (a fine audio editor on its own) if they have any plans to add destructive spetrogram editing. I haven’t any first hand experience of RX8.
