What are the major differences between it and 5.0?
With me being a newbie in digital recording software there`s only a few items that are better for me. I can do an edit or add effects on the fly and test it, if I dont like it, zap its instantly gone, no more clicking undo. If decide after a write I can still use undo though.
The graphics are smoother and more professional looking. The views are customizable.
The plug-ins can be custom arranged like a rack. The code seems to run much faster than 5 did. It will pick up all the audio files I`ve seen since I`ve moved to XP.
For big stuff like you might be doing it supports files over 4 gig with NT file system. Background rendering on one file while you edit a foreground file.
Here`s a clipping:
