I want to sync sound forge to start recording when i hit the play button on winamp. but i am recording just a voice. First i extracted a beat from a cd. then i hit record and then play on the winamp so i can sing the vocals in time with the track but it takes way to long to cut and paste to exact positions so is there an easier way to sync that up.

Wow, that is the hard way. New record features like threshold and timer start are being considered for the next version of Sound Forge, but there's no easy way to do this in the current version.

Really, this is a job for a multi-track application like Vegas. If you have the full version of Sound Forge 6.0, you already have Vegas LE. Give it a try. If not, even the free version of ACID (XPress) will get this done easier than Sound Forge, though you'd only be able to save it as .wma or .mp3.
