    This product did not work with Mac so I had to bring it back. Best Buy allowed the return. So I cannot review the product only the service of Best Buy.

    Bought this for my 17yr old b-day. He loves it! It takes time to learn how to use it. If you are serious about making music, this program is the one to buy.

    Very disappointed

    I bought SoundForge 12 for a new computer (Windows 10 Lenovo Laptop) because I had no trouble using SoundFroge 10 in the past. In this case, the new software won't work to make a simple voice recording. The standard Windows software will do a voice recording. So, I have tested the mic, the ability to play recordings and I have been in touch with Magix email support who is trying to help me, but their first instructions do not fix the problem. But really, on such a standard configuration for a new device, to do the most basic function- how can this be? And BestBuy's policy seems to be not to take open software boxes back. Next I will work with the Geeksquad because I have a 24/7 support membership. I am shocked how hard this is to implement.

    I really can give a good rating because I can't figure out how to use it properly. I ordered on a whim. Will look to see if there are some YouTube videos on how to use.

    Too Difficult to Use

    It's probably just me! But Everytime I purchase one of these music processing programs, I end up giving up trying to use it and chucking it deeply into a closet. I play guitar and am looking for a simple way to record a song and vocal. This program doesn't offer that. I'm sure this program is technically fine for someone who is tech savey, but it's just no help for someone like me. I miss my old reel to reel recorder!

    Needs a lot more RAM.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Although the packaging says it needs 1 GB of RAM, I get an error message and can't start a single new track. And I have 6 GB, by the way. Also, configuring the I/O in Windows is a pain and is not explained well. This software needs some work. AND I haven't even gotten it to work yet (pending a RAM upgrade).
