You are, in fact, not alone. Soundforge is my only piece of software
or equpiment used for making music, aside from the microphone that
goes into the computer. I sample everything through line in/mic/cd
straight into the wav editor, then cut/paste edit, mix, match, etc...
all in the wav editor. It DOES take a shit long time, and it took
quite awhile to pioneer a good method, AND it takes up a crapload of
space. On the other hand, having a visual representation of
absoultely every part, section, sound, sample that goes into the song
does provide for some versatility, as well, using only one piece of
software(which can do almost anything that other software/hardware
can do, given the time and knowledge of the program) allows for some
focus, rather than having to record a sample, then load a sequencer,
and trigger that sample, etc... But the main reason for my method is
lack of money to buy other software(or not being able to locate good
pirated programs other than the wav editor...shh! don't tell the
software companies!). Anyways, that's my two cents.
