Windows Phone Thoughts: Sound Editor From VITO

VITO Technology, who created such Pocket PC applications as VoiceDialer, ButtonMapper and SoundExplorer, now has yet another tool to try out: SoundEditor.



"VITO SoundEditor provides a basic set of tools for sound editing. It features stylish and informative user interface and intuitive toolbar for quick access to options."

Main features:

• Supports native WAV format
• Unlimited file size
• Stylish and intuitive UI
• Basic set of tools (copy, cut, paste)

Note, however, that the feature set is fairly limited because this is a beta release. Other features that are supposed to be coming soon are:

• File copying for editing
• Recording
• Tagging
• One-step undo/redo
• "Save as" option
• Sound rate options
• Sound temp options
• Different sound effects

Okay, here's a strange twist: This is listed as a beta and there is a free demo available, but a registered version costs $9.95. It looks as though the regular release (with the added features) will eventually cost $15.95, so those who buy this beta version will save $6.00, but it strikes me as an odd way to market a new product.

In any event, I'll give this a try, just to see how it does with editing ringtones for my Pocket PC Phone Edition.
