Style of Music: Electronica

Musical Experience: Pro musician/sound engineer

Location: Italy

Feature:
The feature set WOULD BE good IF the program worked as it should.

Quality:
This program is FULL OF BUGS. It WILL CORRUPT YOUR FILES, just like a VIRUS. Yesterday I opened a file with it to listen to it. When I closed it WITHOUT EDITING IT, it was CORRUPT!

Sound:
Operations like time-stretch and phase-vocoding introduce nasty clicks in sound files.

Ease of Use:
Peak is rather easy to use, however I've had to reconfigure my keys dozens of times because of some bug that made Peak "forget" them.

Support:
Never dealt with them. Perhaps I should sue them for all the time and work their product made me lose.

Feature:
Features would be O.K. if the software worked.

Quality:
As I said, it has significant problems.

Desirability:
I would like to get rid of it.

Sound:
The sound quality is very poor as the software has some major bugs that frequently result in distortion and noise.

Support:
Ineffective.

Overall:
Try one of the other audio software companies (Logic, Cubase, ProTools, Etc.).

This is the worst audio product I've ever seen. If you value your 300$, you'll invest in Live, which can do almost everything this can do and much much more.

Bias should be ashamed to release something so poorly written. It is very easy to crash this program and even easier to corrupt your files.
