Mac Alternative To Adobe Audition

Hello,

I currently use Adobe Audition under Windows to create 'mixtapes' of my vinyl collection. This involves recording tracks from vinyl to WAV files (via an M-Audio FireWire 410), doing some simple editing on the files (e.g. trimming, noise reduction), and then stringing them together in the multitrack editor (with some additional splicing/rearranging, FX and overdubbing).

Now I am looking to switch to the Mac but am gutted to find that Audition is not available. Is Logic Express suitable for doing the kind of tasks described above (wave recording/editing and multitrack sequencing of those files). If not, any other suggestions for replacement packages?

Oh and I know that I can run Audition on an Intel Mac via Boot Camp or Parallels Desktop but I want to avoid that if at all possible.

Thanks in advance.

Is Logic Express A Good Replacement For Audition?

Hello,

Apologies for the newbie question but I haven't been able to find much info on Google so far...

I use Adobe Audition under Windows to create 'mixtapes' of my vinyl collection. This involves recording 20 or so tracks from vinyl to WAV files (via an M-Audio FireWire 410), doing some simple editing on the files (e.g. trimming, noise reduction), and then stringing them together in the multitrack editor (with some additional splicing/rearranging, FX and overdubbing).

Now I am looking to switch to the Mac but am gutted to find that Audition is not available for OS X. Is Logic Express suitable for doing the kind of tasks described above (wave recording/editing and multitrack sequencing). If not, any other suggestions for replacement packages?

Oh and I know that I can run Audition on a mac via Boot Camp or Parallels Desktop but I want to avoid that if at all possible.

Thanks in advance.
