Adobe Audition 3 Review
Bob Nicholl
Adobe Audition 3 is an all in one program for recording, mixing, processing and editing your sound files. It features excellent and intuitive controls for creating professional music tracks from start to finish. As a musician and composer I found it to be a feature rich program with the ability to record right to my desktop and then fine tune my various tracks to perfection.

Adobe Soundbooth CS3 Review
Jacquelin Vanderwood
Adobe Soundbooth CS3 is a new program where you can create and fine tune any audio for video. It's power is quite impressive and it's workflow is simple within the CS3 Production Premium Suite. However, you can only edit single tracks and there is no visual preview screen for noise reduction editing. Otherwise, it's an excellent tool for working within the Suite.

Poser 7 Review
Amy Feulner
The content and interface of Poser 7 is much like that of Poser 6; however one terrific new feature that has been long over due is a multiple level undo-redo function. It came preset to 100 levels. This number can lowered. This is a much needed and very welcome improvement.
