I will try to get up to speed and then do a comparison and comment
back.
I have Cooledit Pro LE, Cooledit Pro, and Audition all running and
active within the house. Yet I don't actually use them for initial
record in the field for laptop recording anymore because of the lack
of direct 24bit support, no ASIO drivers, 2.1 gig record limit, and
inefficient cpu use. It is still very easy to use for stereo edit
and I like that.=20
The different versions of Cooledit don't all appear the same for
metadata but it could be that the functions all remain and are just
located in different places. My hope is that Adobe will catchup and
continue the work on Audition. They sent me a update question survey
last week that took about 15 mins to complete.
For me the fields are nice but not so important. I feel that text
search engines are now good enough that if I can type paragraphs and
attach images that it would be good enough for a long term archive
and easy to search for.
I am using three+ file name conventions that should be rolled into
one. So I am reviewing this with interest and find it very important
to understand the options well. Metadata at least is growing in scope
and not being ignored or discontinued.
