Audacity

[TheStu]

I have audacity on my Mac, and it is just fine for the few times that I fire it up, but I want something better.

Or at least, better looking, and preferrably OS X native. That is the biggie, cuz as it is right now, Audacity is not parallel friendly, so it eats up all of one core when it does exporting, instead of load balancing. Furthermore, simple tasks take longer than they rightfully should (as compared to doing the same basic things in say... iMovie), and by simple I mean just navigating around and zooming and what not, not the exporting or anything.

So, does anyone know if there is a program much like Audacity, but OS X native? Prefer it to be free, but wouldn't say no if there was a small fee (less than $10)

Hrm, I will have to give Garageband a go, I completely forgot about it.

Are you using the OS X version of Audacity?

Yes, I downloaded the OS X version. But it simple appears to be a Java app (according to my friend who has played witht eh source code, it is actually a Nyquist (sp?) app with a Java wrapper for cross platform-ness)
