User questions & answers

Question:	Can anyone explain the difference between this and the wavepad sound editor that nch is offering on their site for half price (49.99) until jan
Answer:	Hi Donny. That's a great question. I got Wavepad and Videopad direct from Nch and have been using for years. Both complete and with all function available. I believe that the main reason is you do not have a DVD media because you make a download from them. But who cares if it is cheaper? ;)
Question:	Can this software remove vocals from songs? if not which software can edit and remove vocals? thanks
Answer:	Hello. No, you cannot use the wavepad to do this. However, you cannot forget that to perform this action the audio file must be recorded and avaliable with multichannels. In this case, I believe that "Voxal Voice Changer" (from the same company) could help.
Question:	If I purchase this will it come on a CD or will it just give me a link to sign into
Answer:	You will get a link to download the software and a license key No CD
Question:	Can you play an audio cd, sing along with it and record at the same time
Answer:	You can also record the CD that's playing on a CD player, sing along with that and record those sounds on one track. A good mic is always a big help.
