My company needs to records audios for one of the web based softwares we are developing and we want to do it in house, we actually have a mini studio here that we don't use, we are going to contract somebody that really knows about it. I have heard that Sound engineering technicians don't really use Sony SoundForge .. but i don't really know..

I used CoolEdit 2000 and I was very satisfied with it .
How much do they want to spend? Programs run the gambit from free programs like Audacity to top end programs like Pro Tools which can set you back a couple thousand or more. I use Sony Acid which is a nice med grade program for under a 100 bucks.

I think money is not an issue, we actually have Sound Forge 6 in one of the computers, i have used it several times and I like it, but it is an old version as far as i know, and they want to buy a kick ass program, we want to create really professional audios for our software.

Suggests to try FlexiMusic Wave Editor (http://www.fleximusic.com/waveditor/overview.htm), an audio /Mp3 editing and recording software

Those who know me know that I live in a haunted house. We record a lot of evp's with an Olympus digital voice recorder. I use Sound Studio from Felt Tip Software - www.felttip.com - and do quite a bit of editing with it. It's less than $100 and they have a full trial version. Couldn't say how t works for music but it as all the features.

I've always thought Sound Forge was professional, though not as commonplace as Pro Tools. Then again, there are those Sound Forge Studio packs that run about $80 that you can get at a Best Buy or someplace similar, compared to the main program which is I think $500 last time I checked.
I'd say Pro Tools if you can. I hear nothing but good things about it.

You could look into Cubase, thats about as high end as you can get in Audio editing these days.
I used CoolEdit 2000 and I was very satisfied with it .
CoolEdit Pro is gone now, and replaced by Adobe Audition.
That is my choice for Audio Editing. For radio commercials, we always used Cool Edit Pro (before Adobe bought it). Now I use Adobe Audition.
Second choice would be Sony's Sound Forge. It works well enough. :)
