Glancing through the specs for Sony Audio Studio regions are certainly mentioned and I feel regions must exist in version 9 to enable burning tracks to Cd from within Audio Studio.
So I'm guessing the command to convert markers to regions is somewhere else now, but not absent in Audio Studio. I can check this when I turn on my other computer which has Audio Studio on it. As for the plug-ins, well I think Sony saw it's mistake in version eight of SF and so started offering noise reduction etc bundled with SF9 and now 10 I think. You may think the price premium high, but then the various converters offered as additions are amed probably mor at professionals than more casual users. One doesn't have to look far either in our little access tech world to know that something carrying "pro" in it's name is inviting custom from someone who's liekly not paying that premium price themselves.

It would allow one to create a CD from those regions that you spoke of, with individual tracks involved, which I am sure, from your conversation, that Goldwave could do as well, right? I could never figure out how to create the regions in version 9, hence I would import them, from version 6, which I was told, by Jim Snowbarger, the Snowman, at one time, that his way of doing that was the same! I am digressing here and don't have anywhere near the knowledge that you have, judging from listening to some of your posts, so I will close; just wanted to offer another viewpoint on this subject!

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!
