[Dtb-talk] JFW SCRIPTS NEEDED RE: digitizing 4-track recordings

[Steve Jacobson]

Brett,

I don't have experience with the JFW scripts, but Adobe Audition 1.0 and 1.5 are a great deal like CoolEdit Pro.  It 
probably is worth trying those scripts because they might work all right.  The module names changed, I believe, so you 
will have to get the scripts to load.  Audition 2.0 is quite a bit different in some respects, and scripts written specifically for 
that version are less likely to work, but I would guess that any scripts you find are for earlier versions of Audition.  

I don't know how Cool'Edit 2000 fits into the script picture, though.
