I use Goldwave and can't seem to get Direct X plugin's to work on it. Any ideas?

Peavey ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm sorry, you must be confused- plug ins don't work with waves of any color.
You see, waves are always in motion and there is simply no place to put a jack for a plug-in.
What you need is a analog to digital converter. The convertor takes the wave (which is analog) in one side and converters it to the 1's and 0's of digital. You will introduce some distortion in the process, but those 0's are the perfect place to put a jack for the plug-in. Most manufacturers have caught onto this trick and have made plug-ins even cheaper by using low-cost digital jacks. Cheaper converters will sometimes mount the jack on the 1's (it uses less screws) but the sound quality really suffers because the 1 is unstable and introduces some jitter to the sound.
So that's why plug-ins will only work in the digital domain. Hardware units use the same algorithms as the plug-ins, but they have the more expesive harware jacks so they cost more and (due to the distortion introduced by digital jacks) sound better.
Good luck!

...yeh, Chris is right...but, instead of using ADCs you might try using a parity generator--an inexpensive arithmetic chip used to generate a parity bit to be attached to a "word" when transmitting (or recording) data and to check the received parity when such data are recovered...this way you can make your connections in virtual space without the hazards of any Os or 1s dropping off the pathway...plus, there's no wow or flutter.

GoldWave
This is a tough question, even though I am a newbie I'd like to take a crack at it. First of all pull up GoldWave in a program like MicroSoft C++ and attempt to change the source code, this is easier than it sounds, just type DirectX in any place where it looks like it will fit. If this doesn't work go to your Windows folder, right click and hit delete. It's easy! Hope this helps
