I hope it works out for you. Obviously I under-use all the features it offers :) but for the ones I do use, it does a good job for me. I particularly like that you can define your own hot keys to operate all functions by the keyboard, or use the preprogrammed hot keys, and I really like the blank markers, which can also place a stamp in the document with the exact location in the audio file, and a hot key to jump to those marks in the audio file. The sound controls are really nice, too, and slowing or speeding up doesn't cause distortion in the voices. All in all, it's been a good investment for me (and tax deductible too as an IC). Good luck!
