The more I use Windows 7

The dumber I find it. It is in no way this HUGE improvement over XP. There are actually lots of things that are much dumber and counterintuitive than how they were in XP. And Media Player 12?? DUMBEST FUCKING THING EVER. There is no "Edit Playlist" feature. Seriously? I can't edit a playlist after I make it? Well, I can. I just have to open the playlist, start to play it in order to get it to load in the "Navigation Panel." Oh, and there's a fucking AUTOPLAY function built in somewhere so that when I add a file to a playlist it just starts playing it! Did I tell you to play it? NO! GAH!! Soooooo stupid. Seriously. Give me my damn XP back. Fuckers.

I actually started on WMM, so I knew what it was about. (My first version of Abyss was through WMM which is why I did a redux.) Once I started using Adobe, I couldn't believe how useless the program was. BUT! It did serve its purpose. Even while using Premiere I would use WMM to at least cut out clips from episodes so my imports into Premiere were small and specific. Otherwise WMM isn't much use unless you want to throw together some still clips set to music.

I think my biggest problem with Ulead is the lack of audio wave visualization. I don't really have an ear for music so I kind of need that but Ulead doesn't show it, so it scares me to try to dive into using it.

Ah. See, I've never had that audio visualization thing. But, well, band geek. :-) As I edit, I just play the song and the hit pause on the beat where I need to, guesstimate how long a clip I need to go from there....
