#Sony sound forge vista install

Double-clicking the Sound Forge 9 installer again first reminded me that Sound Forge 9 was already installed (duh) and then proceeded to install the Noise Reduction plug. Evidently it wasn’t going to wait around while I uninstalled the previous version, so I headed over to the Add/Remove Programs panel to remove version 2.0b, which should be replaced with version 2.0e. Clicking OK (the only choice in this instance) made both screens disappear. Before I could move, it brought up a dialog that asked me to first remove the previous version. I hit the Next button, and after thinking for a moment, the installer showed me the Welcome screen for the Noise Reduction Installation Wizard. It installed SF9, and then announced that it would install the Sony Noise Reduction plug-in, which I had previously purchased separately. After approving the EULA between yours truly and Madison Media Software (evidently a Sony company), the installer did its thing. It first installed a Microsoft Visual C++ package from 2005 - not a promising start, but perhaps no big deal.

exe unpacked itself and began the installation process. Having downloaded all the files, I set about unpacking and installing them. Sony has done a good job helping users manage their licensed products, providing an account section that shows everything you’ve bought and registered since 2002. I bought the upgrade online, which is a painless process. You’ll need 150 MB of hard disk space, a Windows-compatible sound card, and a DVD-ROM for installation (unless you install a downloadable version). The RAM requirement is a modest 256 MB, but once again I don’t recommend trying to do any kind of audio work on less than 512 MB of RAM (and preferably 1 GB). The processor requirement has gone from 500 MHz to 900 MHz, although if you’re still trying to make do on less than a 1 GHz processor, you probably aren’t looking at software upgrades anyway. The program still runs on Windows 2000 SP4 and on XP, and also on Vista (you haven’t switched to Vista yet, have you?). The system requirements for SF 9.0 have increased from version 8. Other improvements include drag-and-drop mixing and pasting between channels, a phase scope and mono-compatibility meter, and improved snapping. Before any of you go crazy here, let me assure you that these are crafted for surround work rather than true multitrack work, but they can be made to serve that purpose after a fashion.

#Sony sound forge vista update

The most significant update in Sound Forge 9.0 is multichannel audio recording and editing. Now Sony’s back with the ninth rendition of this venerable editor. We last looked at Forge in 2005 with version 8 (see the May 2005 issue of RAP), which added audio scrubbing, ASIO and VST support, and flexible keyboard mapping. Sony’s Sound Forge has had a long reign as one of the heavyweights in stereo editing.
