Gold wave takes about 4 times the time to noise reduce than the NR plug-in for Sound Forge, the interface takes getting use too with regard to cursoring around in the program, interface is a little like a cassette machine with rewind and fast forward though in sf8 you can do that also; the batch converting is a little more friendly in GW than SF; handling large files is a lot easier with SF than GW going to a finding a place by cursoring in SF after jumping to a time is a good bit easier because the jumps can be changed in either forward or backward direction with the up or down arrow; handling splitting files between channels in SF is easier because you can tell which channel is monitored by what you hear, rather than hearing both at once all the time, (same as SR which does that), reversing takes a good bit longer in GW than SF if you're converting an NLS cassette and need to reverse the right channel, etc.' some others but those are what I can think of right now.
