I bought this mainly looking for replacement software for Roxio V.6 program I had been using a long time. In the Roxio program, a major feature that I loved was the crossfading. However, that older version of Easy CD Creator didn't really have normalizing so I was hoping that Pyro would contain the best of both worlds. Well, yes, you can crossfade & normalize in the editor module of the program but it's pretty time-consuming and much more cumbersome than the Roxio method of having the track titles laid out - in Pyro, you have to do this in an editor view. One other major problem I had was it took me a few days and a couple of software update downloads before I got the program to recognize my burner. The version I bought was 1.0.2 and I finally discovered - through no help from Cakewalk support - that I needed to download the 1.5 patch and then it finally recognized my burner. Man, I was messing around with the IMAPI setting in my computer, the System Admin tools, and nearly pulling my hair out before I tried the latest download. But, having said all that, it does appear to be a basically good program for the recording engineer in you and if you have the time to spend with it. It's just not what I was looking for but it may prove to be a great program for you.
UPDATE: Since getting used to this program and learning how to do the things with it I wanted it to do, I'm actually kind of getting hooked on it. So, if you do decide to buy Pyro Audio Creator, just be sure to download the latest patch for 1.5 for it to work properly with XP. Someone said that support was non-existent, I've found that to not be the case. Their email support will get back to you in a few days after you contact them. So, I can now say I do recommend this program for it's features & value.Get more detail about Cakewalk Pyro Audio Creator - Windows CD.
