Wow. I never knew Scott was developing for the dark side too (kidding).

But seriously, it looks like he is keeping up with the development of the PC app as well as the mac app. Why have I never seen him mention this?

i am, but i have had to use PC for stuff at friends houses and such
since they don't know all about this music stuff anyway its much easier for them to have 1 program vs 3 or more too

So it's basically just the same thing as TLH. Doesn't look like it helps me with importing audio.

He he. No, TLH is basically the same thing as xACT. xACT was around for quite awhile before TLH.

As Aaron said, just go to the util tab, drag in the tracks you want to extract, and it will extract them. Make sure to take a look at the log file to make sure they all were extracted without problems. I also like to copy the log file into a text editor and save it (as "whatever.log") and seed it with the show.

I used the link willndmb gave (http://199.224.117.240/~scb/index.php?path=xactwin/), dl'd the latest version, the one at the bottom, extracted the files. I go to the 'util' tab and it has a blank list on the left side, 'add files' and 'clear files' on the bottom, and on the right it says 'not yet implemented'. When I dl'd the zipped folder there were some other folders in there with some other files, so should I install something first?

ahhh, yer using a PC [i've only got experience with the Mac side of xACT]...he must have not included that feature in the windows version

i would stick with EAC on a PC anyway, since it has the ability to set read/write offsets, etc
