Pros: Very user friendly. Tutorials are very helpful and simple. Record exactly what you want. Many file formats and bit rates to save to. Loss-less recording. Found my devices easily and quickly (microphones, and midi’s) Takes two inputs! Record internet radio!
Cons: Lag in voice when recording, confusing. To small, squinted most of the time to see. Fragmented on screen.

Start out with the video tutorials and this will be a very easy to use and practical program. Especially for those who are into all things audio. There is so much that you can achieve and do with this program. Ambrosia makes it easy as pie to use. The video tutorials are simple and very straightforward. I love the fact that you can record Skype calls on here and that is probably the biggest thing that I liked about it. It was a breeze to get recording quickly, but obviously there is at least a little bit of a learning curve when doing the editing. My podcast has been held up in the online interview department due to not having a good, effective, and easy to use way to record calls. Luckily Wiretap studio came to my rescue and solves this problem for me. There are so many neat things about this program, if you are into audio you will deff want this program.
One drawback for me seems to be at this point, and perhaps it is because I am new to it, but it seems that there are many different pieces to this program and they all pop up in different areas of your screen i,e two inches here two inches there etc.. I would like to see it a bit more streamlined and perhaps all in the same spot, and opened in one window; however this may add difficulty to the program. The only other thing I did not care for was that sometimes when I talked into the mic my voice did not transpose on the spot but there was a lag and it confused me and my thinking more than anything. I also would like the ability to download the video tutorials and perhaps you can, I just couldn’t. And now back to the positive….
I love the fact that you can add TWO inputs and record interviews instead of sharing a mic and space with someone! One cool feature is that you can create your own presets to save format and sample rates that you like and quickly call on them to do on the spot recordings. I could think of many uses for this. Options to save to many different places including bluetooth capabilities so you can create your own ringtones!
Another cool thing is that you can hear the difference in the different formats of how your file sounds before you do the final recording, allowing you to change up the audio if you want!
Overall, this is a simple and effective program. I would personally recommend that you GET IT, I know Ill be using it quite a bit!
