New version of Audacity

Anything that doesn't fit into other topics goes here!

Audacity has a new version of the program with new features that are very useful.
I have not tried the release yet, but you can see a presentation of the program, its new UI and the new features, where actual point-editing stands out imo.
Se it all here:

As nice as Audacity/Tenacity are, I've fully transitioned to using Ocenaudio.
I like the interface better and it's well-supported. I'm not feeling any limitations with Ocenaudio, really. I've been using it for several years now.

Interesting!
Does it have all Audacity features -like the new point-edit?
Where would you say that it is better than Audacity?
Thanks for sharing!

Sorry if i sounded condescending. I wouldn't say Ocenaudio is better; just different and just as good. It's been a long time since I glanced at Audacity. I didn't realise until your post that it's getting more and more like a DAW. I would, however, say that I still prefer Ocenaudio for it's looks LOL. I don't know what point-edit is, but Ocenaudio has stuff like finding the zero-crossing and adjusting selection to that and you can smooth/interpolate to declick. It loads VST3's (instead of LADSPA's), but hey... we're living in interesting times; we have the best of both worlds with these choices between DAWs and standalone editors.
My guestimate is that both programs do much of the same things--well.

Thanks for tolerating my sharing, lol.
