Freeverse and Felt Tip Software have announced the release of Sound Studio 3. Reengineered to take advantage of the latest OS X technologies, SS3 is positioned between more expensive programs with steep learning curves, and far less robust apps. SS3 is designed for anyone who needs to record or edit lectures, podcasts, voice-notes, sermons, performances, and more.

Ian Lynch Smith, President of Freeverse has said, "Sound Studio is the perfect app for recording voiceovers, podcasts, or creating sound effects. We've used it for years to create all the dialog and sound effects in our games, which is why we're so thrilled to be publishing this amazing new edition."
Sound Studio 3 features:

Recording:
• 24-bit / 96 kHz sampling, in stereo or mono
• Low latency monitoring, using Core Audio
• Automatic recording starting and stopping
based on timers or audio levels (a.k.a. VOX)

Editing:
• Sample-accurate edits
• Markers (a.k.a. Cue Points) with text labels
• Time ruler with units for video and film
• Copy-and-paste editing
• Basic mixing edits
• Applescript and Automator support

Effects:
• Supports Audio Units
• Dynamics: Compressor, Expander, and Noise Gate
• Equalization: Graphic EQ, Low Pass, Filter and High Pass Filter
• Delay: Chorus, Flanger, Echo, and Reverb
• Volume: Amplify, Fade In/Out/Special, and Normalize
• Repair: Interpolate, Silence, DC Offset, and Swap Channels
• Repair clicks and pops by interpolating samples or silencing them
• Tone, FM, and noise generators
• Pitch adjustment
• Backwards/Reverse Audio
Sound Studio 3 will retail for $79.95 and is scheduled to ship by the end of this month. It is currently available for preorder at Freeverse's website.

For $80 I'll stick with the free and similarly featured Audacity: http://audacity.sour.../about/features

Ah, but Audacity doesn't do Applescript/Automator, which gives Sound Studio the edge when doing batch work on game sound effects. It also doesn't handle Audio Units either.


(in the interests of fairness.. poster is published by Freeverse but has no connection with or royalties/kickbacks from Sound Studio ;) )
