Re: Hi everybody and which is better editor?

Well, SoundTower is free, so just download it and try it. If it fits 
your needs, you're all set. But there's a misconception 
about "paying for beta testing" with Vyzor. It's paying for full 
version 1.0 and a free upgrade to 2.0 when that version is 
eventually released with additional features, and you get to play 
with the almost fully-developed beta version and provide feedback to 
the developers in the meantime. SoundTower doesn't recognize my PEK, 
so I use Vyzor.
