    It costs $100 to get the features that comes with Audacity for free, and the UI is a mess.

    It’s not free I’m sure it’s great but please don’t put it at the top of the list generating the idea it’s the most similar only to find out after installing it’s not free and worse there’s no free version. It’s all or nothing Thank you for this website though! It’s exactly what I needed!

    Discontinued

    Developer's http://tapemachine.samalyse.com website has lapsed (just a domain squatter now), and last update to the software was on 22 Dec 2014. It's still available on the Google Play store. I redirected the "official" TapeMachine site link to the Google Play store page for the program. Not technically correct, but better than a dead site.
