Default Review of Audition 5.5

You reach a point where the old code is just so convoluted and has suffered so many
patches that rewriting it is all that makes sense. That approach *always* upsets
schedule-driven managers, but they come around a year later when the bug reports fall
off.

The thing is, they claimed to have completely rewritten the code for
version 2 as well so the code isn't actually that old and should have
been able to cope with multiple processors which were common when
version 2 came out. Version 2 was also a disaster and it prompted me
to move over to Reaper for multi-track work. Reaper and Audition 1.5
make a formidable combination although I'm thinking of replacing
Audition with Izotope RX as I mainly use Audition for its restoration
tools.
