Does anyone have an opinion on this product? I would simply be using it for cleaning up live tapings and burning cd's. The price seems right and some of the reviews I have read online seem to be pretty positive.
Thanks,
Tomac

There are free, or at least cheaper, programs that'll do what you want.
Not that Peak isn't a great app (it is), but you could save your cash.

I'll agree. I use Sound Studio for the most part now. Peak LE ticked me off in a couple of areas:
1) Cannot make markers into regions
2) Cannot batch export as individual tracks
3) Cannot control quality of 48>44.1 resampling
4) Draconian (for a less than $100 app) registration process. In addition, I occasionally get weird errors telling me the app is already in use elsewhere and it shuts down. Mind you, I have a legit version installed on a single machine.
There are others, but in general, I rarely use it now. There is a trial of Sound Studio at freeverse.com...give it a go!

Another vote for Sound Studio here.
They give you a real healthy trial period.

I use Peak Pro 5.12 along with plug ins like ultramaximizer, it all works great, sorry that the above mentioned has happened to some, but i have not had any of those problems using peak pro. Markers to regions - jsut fine, all others no problem
but like people say there is good freeware out there, in addition I do like Peak wiht the waves plug ins to clean up recordings

I use PEAK VST for over 6 year on my G4 with dual 833's. Only problem I had they helped me with immediately and it was just a learning curve issue.
I know there are others, and that PEAK gets some bad game around here, but the above IS my opinion.
