1.0 out of 5 stars Not really pleased with the product, January 10, 2006

Well if you have no desire in converting your music or lecture to mp3, then this product is excellent. However if you want to convert your lecture or music into mp3, here is the problem.

You have to register for a password to enable the MP3 encoder.
Not a problem on the first load. But if your computer crashes and you decide to buy a new one computer. The activation code will not work on your new computer and they will NOT NOT NOT send you a new activation code.

So you are stuck with two option, either by some new software or find an wav to mp3 converter.

My thing is this, why do they have this activation code in the first place. It is such a big pain in the butt. If you paid for the product you shouldn't have to register it to activate something you already paid for.

There are other alternatives to audio cleaning.

Sound Forge Audio Studio, you don't have to register to active the mp3 encoder.

If that is to expensive, there are free recorders on the internet.

I am NOT NOT NOT very pleased about this feature, because I restore my computer back to factory setting once a year. And you cannot enable the mp3 encoder once you have activated it once. As Magix will not send you another password. And I am about to upgrade my computer to a brand new computer and guess what, this product will worthless, once I get a new computer. I'll have to buy a new one.

4.0 out of 5 stars There Is Hope For Old Recordings, October 28, 2005

At last, an affordable "Mastering Studio On The PC" package!

My experiences so far have been very good for the most part, being able to clean up old cassette recordings and such from my archives has been a huge blessing. I like the Spectral Cleaning option that, with some practice, allows one to eliminate specific noises (like clicks, static and other sonic pests).

For someone new to this whole world of remastering and cleaning up old recordings, this package is a great tool with a lot of great features for the money and the analyzing wizards are useful for newbies. Getting the hang of this package isn't very hard at all and with time becomes progressively easier to fine tune and tweak to your liking.

Not absolutely perfect but a darn good deal for the money.

1.0 out of 5 stars T. V. Goodwin is right, January 21, 2006

Too late.

I just read T. V. Goodwin review after I placed an order for MAGIX Audio Clean Lab 10. I am going to send a complaint to the FTC since it says nothing about the upgrade on the package until one go to export a file as a MP3 format. The upgrade says nothing about not being transferable. It is bad enough to have to buy a program twice, but 3 and 4 times? That is why I quit buying Norton products.
