I guess I wouldn't be as concerned about how small a piece as I am things like the equalizer, noise reduction, click and crackle features, compression, and mixing choices. But, that doesn't mean that my needs are the same as everybody else on this list. So, at the very least a person should be compairing Goldwave to at least one other sound editor in a price range that they can afford. And, I would be willing to bet that Goldwave will be fine for 80 percent or more of persons who are not concerned with getting broadcast quality for every file they edit.
