RE: Izotope

No, actually I haven't.

I decided to spring the $850 for Saracon partly on the
basis of the graphs at
http://src.infinitewave.ca/
(slow rolloff, you know. ;-> )
and partly because if I'm going to invest so much time
in offline upsampling (I've already invested a considerable
amount of time just on the same couple-dozen albums, but
at some point I want to declare the experimental phase over
and get on with building a substantial library of converted
CDs without worrying about which tool and/or procedure
might be better) I wanted the peace of mind that I expected
to have by going with Saracon.

Also, of course, if you don't already have a Mac,
Wave Editor is going to be more than $79. ;->

However, I do have a Hackintosh of sorts: a hacked
OS-X Leopard running (not terribly quickly) in a VMWare
virtual machine. Maybe, just for giggles, I'll spring
for Wave Editor and install it there (I'll have to use
MacDrive to exchange the audio files between the virtual
Mac and the PC).
