Hi Jonathan

I do something very similar using Cool Edit Pro SE. While I've only
recently started using Csound, what I tend to do is create snippets of
music using various pieces of soft and hardware (inc. Cubase running on
an Atari ST and an Akai sampler), record these digitally into my PC and
then piece them together in CEP SE. Check out http://www.syntrillium.com
for info on the full version of the program (the SE version is given
away with Event audio cards: http://www.event1.com). They also do a very
good shareware 2-channel editor called Cool Edit 96.

I've been working with Csound and sound forge for a few years now (even if
my SF skills have improved much more than my CSound ones). and it's a very
good combination. However I prefer working with cooledit so  I can mix
CSound rendered bits without actually copying and pasting on top of the
same destination file.

This is interesting - I've only been working with CSound for a couple of
weeks, but I seen to have adopted the reverse strategy.

That is, I'll use a wave editor to tinker with the sample untill I like it,
then I'll incorporate it into a CSound score using a diskin-based
instrument.  That way all the layering, spacial positioning and timing is
done in CSound rather than in a wave editor.

Would someone with more experience of the possibilities comment of the pros
and cons of these two approaches?

Thanks

Andreas
