Neverteheless you should just check out the Demo version and don't get too scared by the top menu bar, which still hast some ugly windows-like icons. The performance is superb. And it offers supreme object-editing, i.e. every audio object (and not only a complete audio track) can have it'S own effects chain e.g.). I think the only other application that offers such a feature is SONAR with the latest versions. Samplitude has this for many year. I am very likely to switch from Cubase to Samplitude, because Cubase 4 is really not what I expected. On example: Samplitude v9 performs better than v8 with it's hybrid audio engine, whereas Cubase 4 needs much more ressources than Cubase SX3....
