It features stylish and informative user interface and intuitive toolbar for quick access to options."<br /><br />Main features: <br /><br />• Supports native WAV format<br />• Unlimited file size<br />• Stylish and intuitive UI<br />• Basic set of tools (copy, cut, paste)<br /><br />Note, however, that the feature set is fairly limited because this is a beta release. Other features that are supposed to be coming soon are:<br /><br />• File copying for editing<br />• Recording<br />• Tagging<br />• One-step undo/redo<br />• "Save as" option<br />• Sound rate options<br />• Sound temp options<br />• Different sound effects<br /><br />Okay, here's a strange twist: This is listed as a beta and there is a free demo available, but a registered version costs $9.95. It looks as though the regular release (with the added features) will eventually cost $15.95, so those who buy this beta version will save $6.00, but it strikes me as an odd way to market a new product.<br /><br />In any event, I'll give this a try, just to see how it does with editing ringtones for my Pocket PC Phone Edition.
