    Wax 2.0

    http://videoinasnap.chuckengels.com/images/wax_lg.jpg

    Wax is a high performance and flexible video compositing and special effects software. The idea for Wax is to be very general purpose and flexible in video compositing and effects, so that you can compose your dream video sequence with ease everytime.

    Wax can create 2D & 3D special effects and can work in two modes - as a standalone application which would appeal for home users/beginners, and as a "plug-in" to video editors/NLEs which would be more useful for professional editors. Currently Wax can work as a plug-in with Sony Vegas®, Pure Motion EditStudio and Adobe Premiere® and work for integrating with various other NLEs is in progress.

    Screenshots

    Audacity® is free, open source software for recording and editing sounds. It is available for Mac OS X, Microsoft Windows, GNU/Linux, and other operating systems. Learn more about Audacity... Also check our Wiki and Forum for more information.

    The latest release of Audacity is 1.3.7 (Beta). Because it is a work in progress and does not yet come with complete documentation or translations into foreign languages, it is recommended for more advanced users. See New Features in 1.3 for more information about the 1.3.x Beta series.

    For all users, Audacity 1.2.6 is a stable release, complete and fully documented. You can have Audacity 1.2.6 and 1.3.7 installed on the same machine.

    January 28, 2009: Audacity 1.3.7 released

    The Audacity Team is pleased to announce the release of Audacity 1.3.7 (Beta) for Windows, Mac and Linux/Unix.

    This is primarily a bug-fix release. It significantly improves stability and usability, especially on Mac OS X, but incorporates some new features too.

    Cross-Platform Bug Fixes include:

    • Muting/soloing caused incorrect channel results in exported stereo files
    • Effects: Noise Removal added unwanted paste and filtering tail; Nyquist effects added unwanted paste, had no progress bar, and truncated audio if canceled
    • Exports:
      • Export as WAV could be corrupted if overwriting to same file, uncompressed Export Multiple only produced 16-bit WAV
      • MP3 and WMA now export correctly with all supported metadata
    • Restored support for multi-channel recording devices that can record more than two channels using Audacity

    Platform-specific Bug Fixes:

    • Windows Vista: fixed crash opening Preferences
    • Mac OS X and Linux: fixes for spurious clipping, label typing, no shortcuts after running effects, project rate when importing files
    • Mac OS X only: fixes for inactive or corrupted menus and hidden dialogues, portable settings not detected, inability to set independent Command and Control shortcuts; FFmpeg installer now available

    New Features and other changes:

    • F11 Full Screen mode, high-quality "Sliding Time Scale/Pitch Shift" effect, Audio Contrast Analyzer
    • Windows: sound devices can now be opened using the more efficient DirectSound API
    • As a first step towards improving latency correction, a fixed rather than variable correction is now applied

    Because it is a work in progress and does not yet come with complete documentation or translations into foreign languages, it is recommended for more advanced users. For all users, Audacity 1.2.6 is a stable release, complete and fully documented. You can have Audacity 1.2.6 and 1.3.7 installed on the same machine.

    Inkscape 0.45

    Image Tricks 2.3.3

    Inkscape is an Open Source vector graphics editor, with capabilities similar to Illustrator, Freehand, CorelDraw, or Xara X using the W3C standard Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) file format. Supported SVG features include shapes, paths, text, markers, clones, alpha blending, transforms, gradients, patterns, and grouping. Inkscape also supports Creative Commons meta-data, node editing, layers, complex path operations, bitmap tracing, text-on-path, flowed text, direct XML editing, and more. It imports formats such as JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and others and exports PNG as well as multiple vector-based formats. Inkscape’s main goal is to create a powerful and convenient drawing tool fully compliant with XML, SVG, and CSS standards. We also aim to maintain a thriving user and developer community by using open, community-oriented development process, and by making sure Inkcape is easy to learn, to use, and to extend.
