Well, i'd recommend Logic Audio for sequencing and editing...
But Peak is like Soundforge on pc, only not as good....
But you can pretty much do everything within Logic !!!

what's the problem with cubase \ reason ?, if you have problem with that you might run into problems with other programs.
PsYx, I don't think soundforge is any better then peak, but I'm not a big fan of both.

to edit audio use SPARK version 2.8.2 it was the last released in they'r site ,, if u are going to use logic audio 7 u will need to download a TCAU program to renewing the version of the AU plugins ,,
psyx said about peak .. peak is good , but spark is bether indeed

PsYx is right, you can do it all in Logic so why have another software?
I would recomend logic pro for midi and then print it all into audio and use pro-tools..
hope it helps

On the newer macs, Logic is definately the choice to go. SX3 is considered the first version of cubase to offer real competition to Logic (some of it's features cover up for the unstreamlined interface, making it a matter of taste more than ever before which you prefer) - but Logic 7 for the mac is just superior software. If you start with the fact that it's optimized for 64 bit hardware gives some of the effects (like EQ) the advantage of taking nearly no CPU power (this is also why it requires the newer AU structure), that the interface has gotten even better (and Logic 5.5 on PC still has a better interface than SX3, anyone that uses both will tell you that), the (really, totally awesome) internal plugins that are added here, and as always, the mixer just makes cubase look like it's in the stone age.
Ohh, and it's considered very stable software, something new Steinberg products are notoriously not.

Buju,
Give me 1 good reason why U use pro-tools for the audio...
I don't see much benfit in using pro-tools for audio...
Even if u have the Digidesign-hardware, u can now run TDM-plugs in Logic 7 !!!
And the automation is just the same as in Pro-tools, so.....
Why ? |

Hmmm... well PsYx i can give you more then 1 good reason to use pro tools for audio.
1) why use Logic when you need to scrool between so many audio windows when you have it all in one arrangment window in protools.
2)pro tools 6.7 colour labeling, colour regions and all sort of stuff that makes much more easier to use when you work with lots of audio tracks.
3)you might be crating Psy-trance but some people use these softwares for REAL instruments and not only digital music...have you ever timed a real drum kit using logic? do you know how much more user friendly is pro tools on that matter?
4)Automation is somthing i debate on what you say aswell, try mixing a track that you've done lots of fader rides on, lots of pan moves, etc and then you think you wanna speed the multitrack up in about 4bpm. what you gonna do?? all your automation as not nudged it self to the new greed of your multitrack....bummer you need to start again  well not anymore! in pro tools it will move all the automation to fit the new greed + all the audio regions, marker points, etc.
If there is one thing pro tools lacks is a good midi score editor window like in Logic but hey not me and i think nither do you compose classical scores for films and stuff so..... there is no reason to use Logic anyway.... and after saying all that i'll say that I started saying I would use Logic for midi and pro tools for audio but thinking of that prop tools midi isn't bad so why use Logic at all?!
It's all about what you use to suit your needs, as long as everyone are making music or working with music thats whats important!
happy days

Are you working for Emagic ?, they could use you as a sales man. 
From where did you came up with all that information ?, What's optimized for 64 bit, ? Logic or the hardware. The G5 can do 64 bit addressing, but that has nothing to do with Logic.
Logic 5.5 on XP isn't supported anymore, and so is Spark (DarkPsy). Both of them will stop to work well after another spin of service packs and updates.
My point is that diffrent people use different programs. Cubase and Protools are being used by a lot of happy people for a long time, probably even more then Logic.
