DSP-Quattro is a powerful sound editor, a highly innovative product that uses the new millennium latest technology.
The possibilities offered by the internal processing spread from the built-in audio digital effects like reverbs, modulated digital delays, analog filter simulators and parametric or graphic EQs, to the implementation of the most sophisticated algorithms. Among these, the real time HD based polyphonic sample playback or the real time time-stretching and pitch shifting are included. DSP-Quattro is an host for third parties instrument and effect plug-ins, too.

fixed a missed reinitialization of the track effects on the PlayList

I've been using it for a while now. I like it so far, it works well with most VSTi (not all).
It's look and feel just like SPARK. You can use it on 8.6 and above.
I use this program all the time--it's great! and Stefano and the dev team are just fantastic. I've made some bizarre requests, and they've totally addressed them. GREAT PROGRAM! esp with the VST bits and whatnot. It's totally better than Windows' CoolEdit AND for the Mac.
Though I have not demoed this program, it has everything I could make good use of. But without a piano role editor, it does not have enough. At the piano role, and i might very well cop a copy of this one, as the price is very inviting. So, close, yet so far...
