	I use this program and absolutely love it! The standard version of WavePad IS free of charge which is great. NCH Swift Sound also makes a licensed version (i.e. you have to pay) of this program that has additional features not found in the free version, called WavePad Master's Edition. The best thing is, when you first download and install the free version, the features of the Master's versions are also enabled for a 14-day trial period. This was handy for me to decide whether I actually need the extra features. If you choose not to purchase, the Plus/Master's features will be disabled but all of the standard features of the free version will remain permanently enabled. Posted June 20, 2005 by mbrewer.

	This is truly not freeware. Every version of this software, or any software I have downloaded from this company (NCH), expires after 30 days and requires a serial number to be purchased.

	Best audio tool I have used so far. Easy to use. I just need it to remove some buzz and hiss. It did that with a single click and it was very easy. Fast too. It cleaned the audio in a fraction of the time other tools took. My only complaint is that the resulting mp3 files appear to play fine, but my player thinks it is over 5 hours long when it is acutally just under 2 hours. Wave files do not suffer this problem. It could easily be my mistake on saving. Great tool. Posted June 18, 2005 by syeager.
