This is usually a problem only when an established app leaps from one platform to another, not when development has always been dual- platform, as in the case of many DAWs. Even if functionality is identical, Windows graphical elements don’t sit well with the OSX GUI. Happily, it’s built from the ground up for Apple computers and so doesn’t have that ‘ported’ feel that can be an issue for some users. That seems to be changing now, though, first with Spectralayers and now this, a version of Sound Forge for the Mac.

Sony has never seemed particularly keen to jump into the Mac software market, producing as it has done many media- creation packages tailored just for Windows.
