Unfortunately I have to say that I can see exactly where you're coming
from and I'm nodding my head, just a "money making exercise" on behalf
of Sony Software by the looks of things.
As I detailed in a previous message to this list, you had to pay more
than half the purchase price of Sound Forge Audio Studio for the MPg
plug-in, what a joke!

Subject: Sound Forge Audio Studio, another point of puzzlement?
Hi!
In previous versions of the Sound Forge Application I used - that's
now known as Sound Forge Pro - the regions facility was extremely
useful, you could for instance make regions of different portions in
your project and treat those as a playlist - only your regions would
play when you hit the spacebar -, treat them as a cutlist -
everything but those regions of your project in the cutlist would
play when you pressed the spacebar, - or you could extract the
regions to files - each region of your project would be a separate
file -, so far so good. It seems that with Sound Forge Audio Studio
these features have been removed so - given that - I have to ask
myself the question, why bother with regions at all? What's the
difference then in Sound Forge Audio Studio between regions and
reference markers? As far as I can tell there are absolutely noe.
For your reference, you can put a "Reference marker" anywhere in your
project - no matter what mode you're in - - by pressing the "M" key.
So again, another reason to stay away from Sound Forge Audio Studio
in my humble opinion, with those useful region tools removed I see
little point in the software, Goldwave has a similar feature to Sound
Forge's regions in the form of "Cue points", highly useful and
further more they can be shared amongst applications that support cue
files, you can edit them in a text editor and so on so another damn
great reason to purchase this product.
And as a final sorry note on Sound Forge Audio Studio, this version
seems far less accessible than past versions of the software and I
don't think its my imagination either <smile> though perhaps I'm just
used to the excellent accessibility provided by Goldwave under
Windows or amadeus Pro for the Mac <smile>.
