What digitising application do we use most for ripping off air tapes?

[bty997881]

As a Mac user myself, I use Bias Peak, which is my preferred editor for stereo audio in general. I have also used Pro Tools for ripping, but it's a bit of an overkill for two-track work.
I'm lucky that I have access to 'pro' audio software at work, so I guess if I was having to pay for it myself, it might well be something like Audacity (though having said that I do have my own copy of Pro Tools - couldn't live without it!).
If you're simply working with mp3's I'd recommend Rogue Amoeba's Fission, as you can work natively in mp3 format, saving a bit of time converting back & forth,
Cheers

I am only asking because an editor at the journal I have written an article for surprisingly wants MORE technical detail (I did not name the software). I suppose the most common others used here for Peel show ripping and reconstruction might be ProTools, or some of those with the word "sound" in the name?
